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 Turker is a remarkable doctor! I visited him after a sports injury. He took his time to explain the diagnosis to me and made his recommendations. After doing everything he advised, I was no longer in pain or limited, and I was able to return to my sport. I am grateful for his expertise and wonderful care!

Dr. Turkar was thorough in his explanation of my arthritic hands. He was clear that surgery in my case should be the last resort. He was extremely professional in his demeanor. It is refreshing to have a doctor provide a number of options rather than immediately opting for surgery.

Dr. Turker performed a TFCC repair on my right wrist. He immediately was able to diagnose the problem after MRI and examination. He took time to explain the process to me and I felt I was in good hands. Very confident and understanding. The procedure went very well. During recovery I got COVID-19 and had to have my cast removed literally outside the clinic - on the patio. I'm so happy with the results - it's been 4 months since the surgery and am very close to being able to do full pushups again. He warned me to take it easy for 6 months after the surgery, but I'm pretty confident with time I'll be able to return to full activity. Thanks so much!
