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.

Was a wellness appt and we reviewed all medications, situations etc. I have never had a problem with any of the staff. Dr. Atiemo is wonderful, kind and very concerned.

Excellent doctor!
D. Atiemo is a very caring and attentive doctor. He is very reassuring and took the time to clearly explain everything to me and my husband. While I was in the hospital, he came by everyday to check on me. When he wasn’t on duty he had others on his team check on me and report my progress to him. I highly recommend him as a surgeon. He is certainly one of the best!

Articulate and informative
Dr. Atiemo carefully explained all the benefits and risks of the proposed procedure without sugar coating the risks or downplaying the benefits. In an articulate and understandable way - without jargon - he gave all the information necessary to make an intelligent decision.

I found my adenoma by accident with another doctor. Dr. Atiemo is calm, highly intelligent, thorough and has kind bedside manners. His staff is efficient and follows up with you promptly. He visited me daily after my surgery in the hospital. He went over all my questions. I am so glad I was recommended to him. I wouldn’t have anyone else do my surgery.
