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.

As a follow up to my November 2017 post, Dr. Johnkoski continues to be a very special doctor and person. He answers all of my texts, emails, and in person questions during my annual follow up visits. He truly cares about his patients and I feel incredibly lucky to have had him as my surgeon on the worst day of my life. He is truly one of a kind and I am alive today because of him.
