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've had many experiences with Dr tureki James tureki and to be perfectly honest with you unless he refers me to someone I would go to no one else I have an appointment in October with him and I'm going to have to drive 6 hours but I don't mind because he is that good !! I would probably be walking around with a bladder bag and one kidney if it wasn't for him thank you Dr James tureki . I only wish he didn't move so far but if that's what's best for him then I'm all for it !!

I went to Dr. Turecki initially for consultation. He was very quick to always want to do procedures that are unnecessary. He is money hungry , He does NOT explain all your options nor tell you all you need to know to make an informed decision. He tells you only what he wants you to know. When I went to my pharmacy to pick up a med from another dr. I found out Dr. Turecki has prescribed something that I had no knowledge of. I had NO call from the office regarding this. In my opinion that is rude & unprofessional. I had been at his office 1&1/2 wks ago & nothing was said about needing any med. Please everyone be careful & do research before doing anything with this dr. Not very trustworthy.

Dr. Turecki always went the extra mile explaining all my options when I faced cancer. I would say he became a friend. I trust him.

After getting mri’s and other tests he ordered ,turecki acted befuddled why I returned for follow up appt. He didn’t exam test results and refused to read them and imaging I had gotten. He said he was going to get other dr. consultation and call me. He didn’t after calling his office and then told he would call later that day he did not. Don’t see this guy. He keeps moving from place to place. Why?

I had two prostate surgeries a month apart a few years ago. Still on meds and have retention. Doc is very sharp on patient PSA and profile. Explains bladder problems thoroughly. Quite personable doctor.

My primary doctor contacted him at 6:30 in the morning and he saw me that morning. I felt completely at ease immediately! He has a wonderful bedside manner and great interpersonal skills. His staff is also kind and compassionate. I would not hesitate to suggest him to family or friends!

Dr. TURECKI'S Office is very kind, helpful, & conscientious. Dr. Turecki is very kind & very meticulous, & professional. I finally needed surgery in July 2016 and he was meticulous. I was very sick & debilitated by the time we decided on surgery. He corrected an unbelievable problem with my (R) Kidney and saved it. I feel SO much better now that my kidney is unblocked & functioning that I cannot believe it. Thank You, Dr. Turecki & Staff!!
