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.

long extra long waiting time in the waiting room and in the room they set you in for you to nap, if you work from home you could work from here waiting because they wont see you for a few hours!

Once again, I booked an appointment as his first booking of the afternoon. Once again, I checked in 15 minutes early because I respected his time. Once again, I paid over 100 bucks up front. Once again, I waited over an hour after being weighed and a quick BP check. He saw 2 walk-in salespeople while I waited. I walked out. He kept my money with no apology. My time is valuable too. This has happened with every visit. No more. I'm finding a doctor that respects me as well.

Dr Alkara is a pleasant person but his staff is rude and has a "care less" attitude. Record keeping is terrible, and follow up after treatment is non existent. You will have a long office wait and don't expect coordination with other physicians. They are fine with having you wait in the waiting room for 3 hours with a scheduled appointment. If you cancel said appointment on the day of, they will still charge you $25.

Any doctor who is not invested in your personal health will make generic decisions and ignite a bland diagnosis. Found his care to be evasive and cold.
