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.

Dr. Nick is the most wonderful doctor you will ever know. We have been seeing him for the past eight years. He makes you feel like you are his friend and provides the greatest care you could ask for. I couldn't recommend as highly as he deserves. You would be very lucky to have him as your family doctor!

Dr. Okeson is always beyond exemplary. He spends as much time as you need or want and will *never* make you feel rushed. You are absolutely the most important patient he has when you're with him, no matter the reason from a follow up to a physical. He's been my, and my family's GP for more than 2 decades and I happily recommend him to everyone who asks. I 100% could not ask for a better physician......couldn't find a more attentive, helpful, and caring doctor if you burned a genie's wish to search!

Been with Dr Okeson 20 years. ‘Nuff said. If it feels like a long wait, it’s because he spends the time a patient needs. He will give you the same level of attention and time when he meets with you.
