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.
Great Nephrologist!

Dr Sawinski has been caring for my mother since her kidney transplant 6-years. Never have we found someone like Dr Sawinski who is compassionate, extremely professional, caring, and an expert in her field. We would highly recommend Dr Sawinski.
