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.

Spends time with you.
Doctors seem very rushed these days. Dr. Vichot has the talent of listening to you while moving things along so he doesn't keep patients waiting. Gives very clear explanations. Expert and thorough.

Without doubts I strongly recommend Dr Vichot.
Dr Vichot is the best.A patient can only express an opinion based on their interactions with doctor.I can't begin to express how satisfied and grateful I am that Dr Vichot is my nephrolgist. After just one visit, he explained how kidneys work and the issues I was experiencing. He prescribed treatment that reduced my weakness and poor kidney symptoms. I recovered my energy and at 75 have returned to all activities.Thank you Dr Vichot

Wonderful Doctor
Dr Vichot takes his time and explains everything so the noormal non medical patient can understand what he is talking about. He draws great pictures to illustrate what he is describing and is very patint if I don't quite understand what he is saying. He is very calm and nothing seems to get him excited. He is very thourough in his examination and has all the facts before he makes his diagnosis

This was my first visit with Dr. Vichot. Dr Vichot has a patient-centered approach to care. An exchange of some key historical chronological data in order to assess my clinical needs. As a result, a plan was developed for areas of potential concerns. A follow up call in the evening for further clarification of medical history not documented in the current electronic medical charting system. I was impressed. He has a soft touch, and he involves the patient in the decision making. I highly recommend Dr Vichot.

Kind, Knowledgeable & Very Patient
Been his patient just over a year now and would go nowhere else if I don’t have to. I am VERY selective and picky about my choice of doctors nor do I ever write reviews. There are so many drs out there that you are just a number or just another file to and Dr Vichot never makes you feel that way. He truly cares and wants to make sure you understand your care and that you understand the decisions that are being made and are comfortable. He goes above and beyond for his patients! He is very transparent as well, doesn’t sugar coat which I truly appreciate. Highly recommend. Ty Dr. Vichot don’t ever change your ethics or bedside manner!!

Overall amazing
Dr. Vichot is overall an outstanding doctor. He takes his time each appointment to make sure he explains everything in detail and doesn’t leave you with anything unanswered. He is always caught up before the appointment and on point. It truly makes me feel a difference when I go to his appointments. He makes me feel seen and heard and that’s a lot to say about a doctor who I know may see so many a day. Thank you for everything Dr. Vichot!

Extraordinary and gifted physician! Rare find!
My mother was a patient of Dr Vichot. She passed 5 years ago but we still sing his praises! You will NOT find too many physicians like him today. He is extremely intelligent and versed in his field. He has an extraordinary demeanor. He truly listens and cares. He is a true gem and has a heart of gold — this is the doctor you want for any of your kidney issues. God Bless him!
