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 have confidence in his advice.
He spent time reviewing options and very helpful to me in deciding

Dr.Bokper did the follow up for my teen. He did a nice job of explaining different options for how to proceed with a treatment plan that made us feel informed about the decision.

He treats you good, & he helped! Highly recommend
The fact that he seemed to truly care if he could help me, & is! He very intelligent but doesn’t talk down on you, rather he’s very respectful. I highly recommend him. And the check in was pleasant, plus the nurse was phenomenal and helped me a bunch! THANKS YOU ALL!

Professional and caring
Not only was Dr. wanting me to have the best possible outcome with the injection, he also prepared me for the next steps of treatment which included surgery if I should need it. He described the surgery and post op cares so I could figure out when it would best work for me in my schedule. It is good to have a plan in place if injection does not alleviate symptoms.
