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.

An astute intuitive and knowledgeable physician
Dr.Karetny, has been my physician for over 20 years and I judge the seriousness of my condition by her reactions and actions. If she is joking around when I think I am decomposing, I relax and when she gets serious I start to worry. She was able to diagnose a friend with His V in the middle of the pandemic, instead of writing him off as another COVID victim, saving his life in the process. She has always been the last and final word in my health. She confirmed my pregnancy, she took care of my dying grandmother, she was there when my mom passed suddenly, lending a shoulder to cry on and medical advice. She has been there with me through the ups and downs of life, sometimes the only one stepping in when everyone else was stepping out. I highly recommend Dr Karetny and I highly praise her dedication and professionalism in spite of life’s most difficult and turbulent turns. You could do Jo better as far as picking a physician.

Dr. Karetny is a uniquely and incredibly smart and amazing doctor and a wonderful human being. She has been my family doctor for many years. She will always take time out of her busy schedule to help you, even on short notice. She even saved my grandfather's life by catching his colon cancer super early!! Also, she has the unique ability to correctly diagnose problems that other doctors cannot figure out!!! And she will spend as much time with you as you need! She truly cares about people!!
