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'm incredibly grateful to Dr. Nowak for his expertise, compassion, and commitment to improving my quality of life. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking relief from migraines. If you're looking for a doctor who truly cares about your well-being and is dedicated to finding effective solutions, Dr. Nowak is the one you need!

Amazing neurologist!!!
I had the privilege of visiting Dr. Nowak's practice recently, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism by the staff. The level of care and attention to detail they provide is truly remarkable.Dr. Nowak is an exceptional neurologist who embodies expertise and compassion. His deep understanding of neurological conditions is evident in the way he patiently listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. It's evident that he's not just treating symptoms; he's treating the whole person.

Rude
First time visiting Dr Nowak he was proper and nice but I don't know what happened the follow up visit. He was extremely rude and just seemed like he didn't want to deal with patients. If you're having a bad day don't take it out on your patients. Overall bitter demeanor for what seemed like no reason. Seemed like he didn't care enough to give me proper explanations or guidance for my ongoing issues.

First Impression
Dr. Nowak seems very competent, which in turn makes me calm. He has ordered some tests to be completed before my next visit. I hope we can pinpoint my problems and get some relief.
