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.

Initially I thought Dr Decket was ok but when I asked for an mri to get an exact diagnosis of shoulder that had been going on for more than a year she wouldn't order the mri and said the mri was just "show and tell". But she was more than happy to cut me open.

Dr. Dechet is a terrific doctor. She has now seen all four of our children for different problems ranging from ankle to knee to hip issues. She always listens carefully and spends a lot of time with them. She treats my teenaged children very respectfully. She is always cheerful and smiling and never seems rushed. She has diagnosed a range of issues very accurately and helped when we have had a hard time finding knee braces or physical therapists. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I did not feel like she listened to my concerns and completely ignored my thoughts. Said my injury was a sprain although I felt like there was more to it than that.left frustrated and like I had wasted time and money. Found another doctor who did in fact listen to me and it was in fact broken.
