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.

Trustworthy
If you want honest, straightforward and feeling valued as a patient with your health care….then you need to see Dr. Oruene and his team at APEX Medical. I would recommend to anyone and everyone.

I made a comment about being in pain and he said he couldn't help me. Strange, I could have sworn he was a pain mgmt dr. Don't waste your time with this a-hole. No bedside manner, just a huge ego. Oh and the waiting room...kinda dirty, ripped furniture, and always a very interesting mix of characters. If you are just pain normal, you don't belong here, you won't fit in.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Oruene?
I recently began to seek a different Dr. for my pain management needs. I was a patient of Dr.Oruenes' for about 3 years and had always dreaded my monthly appointments. The wait was ALWAYS at least 2 and a half hours long and to top of that, Dr. Oruene is very arrogant and cocky! He treats his patients like their just a number and has a horrible, uncaring bedside manner. But what really took the cake is when I ran across Dr. Oruenes' pic and profile on POF!!! So unprofessional! No Thanks..
