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. K is fabulous. It broke my heart when I moved and he was no longer in my network. He was compassionate and listened carefully, and was the first to diagnose my autoimmune disease. He will give as much time as the administration will allow him to!

In my opinion, Dr. Kozlowski is the best rheumatologist in the world. I have rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia. His bedside manner is kind, considerate, and informative. He listens very well. He explains medical terminology to patients (and caregivers) very well. All of my conditions are under control. He left a previous medical group. I have followed him to his new group. He should be a part of any arthritis, etc. patient's health team. Thank you thank you Dr. K.!

Dr Kozlowski was a fantastic rheumatologist. I saw him for 7 years for muscle pain\tenderness and sjogren's or inflammatory type issues. He always took plenty of time with me at every appointment, never rushed me and answered all questions..even looked answers up online right then and there if he didn't know for certain. I heard he left Centegra, I hope he stays in the area as a practicing Dr, excellent rheumatologists are very tough to find!

Dr Kozlowski is a doctor who treats you as a whole person.....not just an aching shoulder or painful knee. He listens to what you have to say, takes your physical complaints as well as what might be bothering you emotionally and tries to sooth your fears. He explains, in detail, his plan for making a diagnosis......tests, xrays, etc. He's very patient and takes his time to care about you!!!!!

In the beginning it seemed Dr. Kozlowski was genuinely concerned about his patients but with the overflow of new patients he has received it seems he has turned into a more get-you-in, get-you-out kind of doctor.
