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. Pak is caring and very professional.

Excellent treatment plan. Dr. Pak is able to try different doses and different medication combinations to come up with the best treatment plan. I will be taking this medication for the rest of my life, so I feel confident in his expertise and ordering the proper bloodwork.
