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.

OUTSTANDING IN EVERY RESPECT
Dr. Roy has been our family Doctor for over 26 years…guiding Barbara and I though several near death episodes, always with us and more than a Doctor, but a close Friend with tears of desperation….we consider Roy Nakamura and his family true life long Friends.

The Best Doctor Ever
Dr. Nakamura was my doctor when we were stationed at Brunswick, ME from 1996 - 2000. He was kind, compassionate, understanding and really listened when you talked with him. Wish all my doctors since 2000 were as good as he is.

Dr. Nakamura, 20 years of excellent care.
I find him thoughtful, caring, and willing to listen to my concerns. He is always up to date on the various changes and improvements of medical research and care, and has never been dismissive of my concerns. I give him the highest marks.

Had a family member schedule an appointment with Nakamura (being their PCP) and they left feeling dismissed of their concerns. When a physician says to you "We're talking in circles here" it's time to move on! time for SOMEONE to work on their bedside manner...

My family has been patients of Dr. Nakamura for more than 15 years. Dr. Nakamura is exactly what you want from a primary care physician - knowledgeable, kind, personable and caring. I cannot speak highly enough of his professional qualities.
