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 Major surgeries. So when I found out that I needed to have thyroid surgery I was very nervous about the whole procedure.. but Dr. Horsttas assured me that everything would be ok. He is a very professional surgeon he listens to your concerns and worries. His staff are very helpful and caring, giving answer to your questions..I would recommend anyone that is Searching for experience thyroid surgeon that he would definitely be the one you what to see.

Dr. Horattas has managed the surgical care of a close family member of mine. He is empathetic, compassionate, and patient. Everyone with whom we've spoken has the utmost respect for him. Contacting his office and getting answers is a refreshingly simple task in today's world of endless automation and hold times. He has asked us "Is there anything we could have done better?" multiple times. He sincerely cares for his patients and their well-being.

I recently had a surgical procedure done by Dr. Horattas. Dr. Horattas took the time to explain to me the diagnosis and procedure needed. He and his office staff were very professional and on top of every step .. It made my part easy to understand and also gave me comfort in the process.. I put Dr. Horattas at the top of all my list as the best Doctor experience I have ever had.

An outstanding skilled Surgeon that is also compassionate, caring and friendly. Takes time with patients and family members to discuss procedures. His staff and medical personal at his office and at Surgery center are gracious and courteous and professional. All the people I came in contact with made my surgery as stress free as possible.
