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.

I would not recommend Dr. Zakolski if you have depression/mental health issues. I went to him due to severe depression. After I tearfully explained how bad I'd been struggling recently just to make it through the day he asked me if I'd seen any medications on TV that I might like to try. I was dumbfounded and appalled at the same time. I told him that I was there for his recommendation, not the recommendation of a commercial. He told me there were lots of options but he wasn't sure which ones my insurance would pay for. I was frustrated at this point. He decided on a medication, sent it to the pharmacy and told me to return in 3 months. I left the office so upset. At that moment I understood why some people take their own lives. Not that that was something I would consider but reaching out for help is hard enough when dealing with a mental health issue, feeling like the person you thought would help you, could care less leaves you feeling helpless.
