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.

One of a kind
Ive been a patient of Dr Karp for many years he is truly special. He has treated 4 generations in my family. Anytime I have any problems he is always quick to help. He goes above and beyond. Not many doctors like him. He is someone special.

I have been a patient for roughly 20 years and would never want to switch. He is funny and extremely versed in medicines to help a patient of all types. I would definitely recommend Dr. Karp to anyone that asked. Sometimes difficult to get through to on the phone as the lines are always very busy but leave a message and the staff will get back to you within a day.
