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.

Caring and attentive doctor
I am grateful to have had Dr K lead my treatment for non-Hodgkins lymphoma. He thoroughly explained my treatment and illness, answered all of my questions, and was reassuring yet extremely proactive. He and his staff provide the very best care.

I recommend Dr. Kaminetzky
I was referred to Dr. Kaminetzky for concerns on immune diseases related to blood. He took time to ask a lot of questions and was very diligent; which I really appreciated. He also followed up with me regarding appointments and to answer some follow up questions. His office is very cordial and they are very responsive. I would say he has great bedside manners, and is inquisitive and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend him.

Attentive, knowledgeable, and conscientious
Dr. Kaminetzky knows his subject and knows how to explain things to his patients. He regularly phones to explain lab results or schedule visits. In my experience he is very seriously concerned about the health of his patients.

Doctor does not respond to inquiries. I met him. He explained things well; but follow-up has been a nightmare. His staff is useless. When I call, his staff will only say they will pass my inquiry on, but he never calls me back. At the 11th hour, he refused to authorize a surgery for me because another doctor had not called him yet he made no effort to call that doctor. That doctor did call him and approve the surgery, yet I heard nothing from Kaminetzky. Awful man. No concern.

Very professional, courteous and attentive. He's always been caring and kind, thinking of each patient as a family.
