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 been with Dr Davakis since 2007. He is absolutely easy to talk to. I can't say enough about him. I have such high respect and high regards for him. He shows you how concerned he is with all your health concerns.

Our family has been treated by Dr. Davakis for many years. He is an excellent, hard working doctor who sincerely cares about his patients. I have nothing but good to say about him. My husband had a double bypass performed in 1994 and I had a stent inserted in 1996. My mother-in-law had a bypass about twelve years ago. We have continued to visit at least once a year to be able to prevent any future problems. He is the one we would call if any unusual symptoms would occur. Highly recommend.
