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 had a telephone appointment with Dr. Cowan scheduled. When he called, he used some type of slydial service to bypass the ringing so it can go straight to voicemail. I know this because I was on the phone surfing the internet in the moments leading up to when I saw the "missed call" suddenly appear. He left me a voicemail giving me the Kaiser Permanente appointment and advice services line which is useless because it was over a 1.5 hour wait. The next appoinment available is 5 days from now. This appointment was very important as I was in desperate need of an antibiotic to treat an infection. Now I have to go to the ER because this man didn't want to do his job. I wish I could give zero stars.

Dr. Cowan didn't do his job and is now making me pay for it by hyjacking my treatment and ignoring my emails and my medical needs I worked in health care before I was medically retired so I understand how arrogant doctors can profile or paint a bad image of them to another so I quickly just chose a new Dr in the same medical group only to find he already LIED about me just to protect his lack of case management the 2yrs I was with him he didn't do 1 exam out of the 2 yrs 3 visits but Rx mnthly.

I felt Dr Cowan was rushed and was not very thorough. I feel like he didn't take the time to fully understand my medical problem.
