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 don't think I could find a better Doctor to treat me. I always ask questions and like to be involved as much as possible, and Dr. Janota allows that.

Dr Janota and his nurses, Cheryl and Mel, are wonderful and always makes us feel at ease. They listen and don't push pills. I like that because I don't like taking pills with terrible side effects! My husband goes regularly to have his cumadin checked and they always are accomodating to changes in schedules to work around his schedule. A+ service

Misdiagnosed
My family and I went to him for years and never had an issue, but then he misdiagnosed my mother’s illness. She gave him the benefit of the doubt and continue used to go to him. Yet he was short and impersonal towards her when she had additional issues. Very disrespectful.

Linda – Nov 25, 2021

Dr Janota came in and introduced himself, shook my hand and stood looking eye to eye with me during our first appointment. He listened to my concerns and was willing to immediately pick up where my previous doctor (who left the medical group) left off. By the time I walked out of there I felt genuinely pleased with having him as a Doctor. I will recommend him to anybody who is looking for a new doctor! P.S. If you are looking for a pill pusher find a different doctor... If you want a doctor who actually wants to help you give Dr Janota a try!

This was a yearly check-up visit. As always, Dr. Janota and his nurse were pleasant and helpful. I had some questions about recent minor problems. Dr. J. listened patiently and gave me some practical suggestions. As always, he said to call back if the problem was not resolved within two weeks. I would definitely recommend him as a family physician.

I saw Dr. Janota on Jan. 20 in the respiratory clinic with symptoms of corvid exposure. After Dr. ran test and discussed situations, I left with instructions. Dr. Janota personally called me on a daily basis before and after positive test. He checked on my progress and certainly ordered proper medication and helped alleviate my fears. His expertise, compassion and kindness went far and above. This community is very lucky to have Dr. Janota.

Great doctor and great team of nurses and staff. Called with an issue and I was given an appointment same day. Doctor Janota did not rush me through but took time to do some proper testing and checking. He prescribed antibiotics and I think the medication is helping!
