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 wife & myself had a very first nice first impression of Dr Karakozova. However, upon further interactions with her we found her to be rather uncooperative/irresponsive. For example, my wife wanted a simple test for her allergy in one case and she refused to provide it. Ultimately, we chose to switch our doctor based on these experiences that we were not comfortable with.

I had itches and redness on my breast am d started to worry about it. I did a self exam to see if there was any lump but didn’t find anything I went for a “ BETTER /PROFESSIONAL breast exam to be done by Dr karakozova. She just looked at my breast and said it is a rush. She didn’t take a minute to touch if there was a swelling /lumps/tightness and she gave me prescription then I asked her, no breast exam is needed then she said “why? did you find any lumps? She seemed in a hurry.

My experience w/ dr. Nellia Pavlovna Karakozova started good.. however, in May i was in a very bad car accident. Dr. Nellia Pavlovna Karakozova has done very little to help me. doesn't response to my everything that i put on my e-mails and ignores other stuff completely. She has made this whole experience extremely difficult and quiet frankly very stressful! She's unwilling to help in any way possible.
