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.

My mom was referred to her office by mistake but it was the best mistake made by far. Dr. Sokolov and her staff went above and beyond to get us referred out to the right doctors and treatment. I am so thankful for Dr. Sokolov, Dolores, Kristen, and Brenda!! They are outstanding and just...so... awesomely good caring folks :) They are truly one of the best facilities with the best care and will miss them.

Since I had lung cancer 6 years ago in another state, Dr. Sokolov went to a great deal of time and trouble to get my records to determine exactly what procedure to use to minimize any problems or side effects. I finished treatment today and have had no problems other that maybe a little fatigue. I highly recommend her because of her knowledge but she is kind and caring as well.

Dr.Sokolov was very helpful, before I started radiation I was scared and nervous because I didn't know what to expect after going through chemotherapy I had enough pain. I was referred to meet with Dr. Sokolov, my doctor told me she would be able to help me learn more about radiation and what I should expect from this treatment. It wasn't that bad and my experience with Dr. Sokolov made things easier and I wasn't scared anymore. Thanks to her and the wonderful staff for caring for their patients
