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.

Best doctor!
I was recommended to Dr. Veronikis from my primary physician. This was the best choice I ever made. He is a fabulous physician and surgeon. I cannot say enough about his incredible ability to fix all the problems that I had. If you need surgery in his field I highly recommend him!

Excellent surgeon
I had a mesh sling in 2002 elsewhere which worked fairly well for several years until I was having increasing problems with incontinence. I had a revision sling (elsewhere again by a different doctor as the original one had retired) and immediately after surgery the problem seemed worse. I stuck with that doctor as I worked in that hospital system but wish I hadn't. I was referred to Dr. Veronikis and during the first visit knew I was in the right place! He was very patient and kind, made me feel very comfortable discussing an embarrassing problem. He really listened and it was obvious that he cared and wanted to help me. He doesn't use mesh because it has caused problems in some patients so developed a different procedure. He was willing to revise the sling along with a couple other procedures. I appreciated his willingness to do surgery and attempt to improve my situation, which he did! I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Veronikis if you need urogynecological surgery!

Dr. Veronikas is the best.
Dr. Veronikas gave me back my life and hope for the future. He is a top surgeon who cares. I saw multiple drs who did not know what was happening. Fortunately, a dr knew what was happening and who I needed to see and referred me to him.

Best Doctor Around!
I highly recommend Dr Veronikis! After having been told I needed a vaginectomy by a local doctor due to vaginal vault endometriosis, I searched for a second opinion. He was the one! He evaluated and he took into consideration my young age and he said NO, that’s not necessary. He performed a procedure on me that removed the endometriosis without the extreme measure that was previously suggested. He listened, he explained, and he cared about my quality of life! He explained to my son the day of surgery what he did and he followed up with a phone call to inquire about my well being afterwards. He made sure the procedure went smooth and my healing process went smooth. He also made it financially affordable by working an agreement with the hospital to do it for not even a quarter of what it would have been. He cares about his patients all the way around and it showed! My wait to get into him was well worth it! I’d definitely go to him again with any other issues!!!

If you have to have surgery and you want the best, this is the man. He has patients coming from Australia, Scotland and is internationally acclaimed in his field. There isn't any procedure I wouldn't absolutely trust him with, and he is the most thorough and available physician I have ever had. #Michigan

There isn't anything I wouldn't recommend about Dr. Veronikis! He is a great Dr. and a good man. l can't thank him enough. I've been going to him since 2019. He has done 2 surgeries on me and I will be seeing him tomorrow as he is continuing to help me. I have every confidence in this man. From the first surgery the pain went away practically overnight. He's there for you he listens to you and he never gives up on you! He agreed to take me on as a patient and I drive from Western Kentucky to St Louis to see him. I would gladly drive twice the distance. Yes he is that good! I recommend him to everybody and I have even given his card to my primary physician in case any other ladies come in in need. He's kind caring and very witty! He puts your mind at ease right away. The staff are all great too. Very kind and professional. Thank you so much Dr Veronikis! And thank you Lord for guiding me to him.

Dr. Veronikis recently removed all of my bladder mesh due to erosion. I can tell you that Dr. Veronikis is very detailed and explained the whole process in great detail. We travelled from Ohio to St. Louis approximately 10 hours and I would do it all again in a heart beat. Dr. Veronikis is incredibly talented in his field and comes with the highest of recommendations. If you are on the fence as to your mesh removal needs, please give his office a call, I promise you won’t regret it. Dr. Veronikis is upfront and honest. I will be scheduling my repair surgery with Dr. Veronikis just as soon as I heal from my mesh removal surgery that was just completed in June, 2020.

??Dr Veronikis removed all of my SUI mesh two years ago that had been incorrectly placed by my previous surgeon 10 years ago through my urethra! Thanks to Dr V. I got my life back...no more pain and I can now empty my bladder without sitting backward on the toilet. I’m heading back to St. Louis from Florida again in two weeks for repair and know that I am in the most competent hands. I knew upon removal that repair may be necessary and I am so thankful that there is a surgeon to help me WITHOUT using mesh! Thank you Dr V and staff. You are the best!??

I had prolapse issues due to childbirth, aging and a hysterectomy for uterine cancer. My gynecologist recommended pelvic floor PT and when that didn’t work she fitted me with a perrarsy ring. I dealt with this temporary fix almost 2 years and finally did research on my own and determined that Dr. Veronikis was the best doctor. I knew at my first appointment that he knew what he was doing, he spent time with me and examined my prolapse while I stood, other doctors only examined me laying down and said it wasn’t that bad. He was thoughtful and caring and looking back I wish that someone would have recommended him for my hysterectomy so I would have only had one surgery and recovery. I am happy that I found him and pleased with the results, I no longer feel like everything is falling out and am able to run without discomfort from feeling like my bladder is full and unable to empty. I know some prefer a female doctor but I choose the best doctor, he is more gentle & caring than others

His staff followed up after my surgery to see how I was doing and all are very professional and caring. I would highly recommend Dr Veronikis to everyone.

Dr. Veronikis removed my mesh which had been in for almost 10 years. He was very kind and caring. I had lost all hope as I had seen numerous doctors without any help. I drove over 10 hours to see him. His knowledge and expertise is amazing. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is suffering from mesh.
