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.

Excellent doctor
Dr. Brutzkus provides exceptional care! He takes the time to listen and fully address any and all concerns. I appreciate him answering all of my questions and thoroughly explaining everything (diagnosis, treatment options, etc.). I'm not sure what the poor reviews are about and am really surprised by the negative comments. I have had only great experiences with Dr. Brutzkus and highly recommend him! He is patient, knowledgeable, considerate, and compassionate.

As Unhelpful As It Gets
Very smarmy doctor. Talked me out of doing a diagnostic test and pushed treatment off for 4 weeks and then told me the only way to continue treatment was to take the diagnostic test that he told me to cancel, postponing treatment again. I felt like he listened to me, heard what he wanted, then moved on to what was easiest for him. Would not recommend him to anyone. Feel like he's an ex-track star that somehow got an MD.
