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. Kimmel opened his own clinic 01.02.2018. Hope the people that experienced the unhelpful and rude staff at the other clinic he worked in will come to his new office Viewpoint endocrinology and get to experience his new office staff.

I loved Dr. Kimmel, but now that he has opened a new practice, my insurance is no longer accepted. I am still grappling to find a new endo. :(

Dr Kimmel is very kind, and listens well. Balancing my thyroid labs after thyroid cancer is complex and can be frustrating. Dr Kimmel gives me options and explains each one very well. I am fortunate to have him on my team. Thank you, Dr K! The only negative is that the phone/reception staff are unfriendly and sometimes rude. This was offputting at first but I am there to see the Dr so I overlook it.

Dr. Kimmel is very knowledgeable and takes time to explain technical information to you. He spent many, many, hours of research preparing an appeal to my insurance company when they denied coverage for very expensive lab work. The insurance company eventually paid the claim, which would not have been done if not for Dr. Kimmel's hard work on this case.
