Are you sure he's a doctor???? He was rude and never explained anything. I asked him about my numbers and that I was stage3B and he told me I could live like that for years. He gave me no advice on what to do so I don't become Stage 4. I found him totally useless, why is he there???????

My husband has been quite ill and has seen Dr. Dokko more than once. I have been with him. The good doctor has spent ample time with us, answered all our questions and been quite supportive. While I have always preferred an M.D. for my own reasons, Dr. Dokko seems quite knowledgeable and has been more than helpful.

Arrogant doctor who does not listen to his patients. I mentioned my symptoms and he simply dismissed my concerns.

Arrogant and not very compassionate. I highly recommend you do your research and stay away from Dr. Dokko. He acts like he is better than you makes sure he lets you know it. BTW - He is not a good doctor either. Read his online ratings.

After three days of a very painful sore throat, high fever, all over body pain, and very pain neck, I went to see Dr. Dokko, He is in the same practice with my internist, who was off that day. Dr. Dokko put me on Amoxicillin without doing any sort of strep test. He looked in my throat and said it was a "little red." When I complained of an excruciatingly sore neck, he examined it and told me I must have pulled a muscle at the gym, and told me to put a heating pad on it. With 102 fever? He also gave me a prescription for Skelaxin, a muscle relaxer. I in fact had hugely swollen glands. He then recommended taking a probiotic pill from the drugstore. I suggested eating yogurt instead. He shrugged, with no reply. When it was time to submit my Rx to a pharmacy, I asked him for the name and hours of the pharmacy located on the SMG campus. He had no idea. I am 56, and have yet to find a doctor who is unable to accurately diagnose a strep throat. He just might be the worst… doctor I have ever seen. Would someone at SMG please evaluate this guy?
