Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Achampong, Nurse Bibi and a lot of them. – Jan 15, 2023
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Achampong?
I waited almost an hour and a half and then the doctor comes in and barely acknowledged my presence. He was only focused on the computer and when I asked a question, he mumbled the answer without even looking at me. Very rude and unprofessional. The only good thing about my experience was the rest of the staff. They are very sweet.

Dr Achampong is a knowledgeable, caring and supportive doctor. He has a very busy practice, so sometimes the waiting time is extended, but once you get into the examination room he spends time with you and make sure he addressees all your complaint. The office is small but clean. Would recommend him.

His wait time is about an hour not 16-30 minutes. I told him about my on going back problems only for him not to say anything or send me to recommended doctors until I demanded it.

The office is in a house and they don't have enough room for the patients to sit down. 15 Patients 8/11/2018 and 7 chairs. The patients have little recourse when the staff has no respect to call you back. I called the dr. twice late at night about the lack of response from his team and he did not call me back either. We asked them to copy her chart and have it ready on wed 8/8/2018 went to pick it up Sat 8/11/2018 it was not ready and they did not give three years of medical records- requested?
