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.

Dr. Reckamp is the best. We are fortunate to have her expertise.

KAREN RECKAMP DOES NOT CARE--COLD HEARTED
Dr. Reckamp does not care, she pumped my mother up that she had a great chance of surviving lung cancer, even started treatment and she was never around, she would have her staff do the follow ups with my mother. She said in the beginning: 'She is a healthy 78 year old, I don't see 78 year old woman like your mother'--on her last days at Cedar Sinai she didn't bother to come to see her, she AGAIN sent someone else. Get 2 opinions--UCLA or City of Hope--RECKAMP DOES NOT CARE.

Do no t go to her if you want to survive. She does not care for her patients. She treats her patients like Guinea pig. She takes advantage on her patients' trust. She would suggest different trails to you which will never help you. Once the trail made you bad condition, she left you to die. She will not even see you any more. You are on your own at that point.

She is a straight shooter. She will tell you exactly how it is. She is genuinely concerned for her patients, and she knows what she is doing. Couldn't ask for more.
