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.

Best Doctor ever! Thank you for everything

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Olkovsky?
I was a patient of Dr. Olkovsky's for a long time prior to 2012. I stopped going to him once my condition was under control (Ejection Fraction). I have a new concern and will be seeking to return to his roster of patients. The cardiologist that I see now, is not to my liking. I trust Dr. Olkovsky and I'm going back to him as my source for my cardio needs. He has an excellent bed side manner and always explains things to me.
