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 Dr
Dr Dakkak found my problem that other cardiologists couldn't find.

Very caring doctor
I like this doctor very much and plan to be a patient of hers for a very long time. She listens and that's important when people have questions about their health. She is always presentable and very professional. I feel like I am in good hands. The location is very convenient for Tucson's west side and they have a lab right there that you can get your bloodwork done at.

Highly recommended.
I am writing this for my husband. He has been seeing Dr. Dukak for about a year. She has been the most communicative and patient with him throughout his processes. Only problem we’re having with this office is they are not responding to filling my husbands medication and he needs it because he has a history of excessive high blood pressure with stroke, he needs his refills. He has an appointment at the end of June so I don’t know why they’re not refilling it. I will call tomorrow and see what the problem is. He can’t express himself well and he doesn’t understand his medical needs but they blocked me off for speaking for for him .

Dr Dakkak has been seeing me for over a year regarding a heart problem. She is quite knowledgeable and is willing to discuss my issues in considerable detail. This visit went extraordinarily well - additionally there were no delays and the staff was very helpful, polite and efficient. Would that all my physician encounters went so well.
