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 Dr Kanareks patient for a number of years. He is always attentive, prompt, and offers advice and answers any questions with full information I need to plan my healthcare.

Dr. Karnarek is patient, a good listener, intelligent and willing to take time to educate patients on their condition. I brought my elderly father to see him and am so impressed. I feel my father has received the best possible care. If I need a cardiologist for myself, I will definately be scheduling an appointment to see Dr. Karnarek.
