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.

Unethical
My family member was given Dr. Hakkapakki as an internal medicine doctor in UT Health in Tyler. He did not come into the room, yet he charted on her. She was down for a procedure and he copied the previous internal medicine doctor's notes with a few time modifications. He did come into the room to actually visit my family the following day. He seemed rushed and dismissive. I would NEVER recommend such an unethical and lazy doctor to anyone.
