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.

Overall, don’t recommend. Pros: Parking is easy, staff are friendly, and appointments are easy to get, even day-of. Wait times are short. Office is clean but not a regular doctor’s office, more of a chiropractic practice he just does medicine out of. Dr. Rekar is high-energy and enthusiastic about his practice. Issues: I never felt he listened to me, and often jumped in with a diagnosis before I finished speaking. He is clearly a competent doctor, because he was often right, but I should not be cut several times trying to explain symptoms. Dr. Rekar believes very strongly in homeopathic remedies, which is great! However he takes it too far. More than once he REFUSED to discuss options of medications with me. Again, I felt he wanted to make decisions about my health without listing to my input. If you want a doc who will diagnose with as little input from you as possible, and never want pharmaceuticals, he could be a good fit for you. However, for most people, I would look elsewhe
