Patient review summary

2.14
Reviews for Dr. Sarkell paint a mixed picture of patient experiences. Some patients express strong dissatisfaction, citing issues such as poor communication, unprofessional behavior, and lack of follow-up care. Complaints include difficulties in scheduling appointments, feeling disrespected or dismissed, and unexpected charges for procedures that were not clearly explained beforehand. Several patients report feeling ambushed during treatments, with procedures like the use of liquid nitrogen being performed without prior consent or adequate explanation, leading to additional costs and, in some cases, physical scarring. Others mention being prescribed expensive medications without consideration for more affordable alternatives, further exacerbating their frustration. On the other hand, there are positive reviews where Dr. Sarkell is described as compassionate, attentive, and competent. These patients highlight his excellent bedside manner, thoroughness during examinations, and the efficiency of his office staff. Some have found comfort in his ability to address their concerns promptly, with one patient noting a same-day appointment and a reassuring experience regarding a potential cancer scare. However, the overall sentiment from the reviews suggests a significant divide in patient satisfaction, with many feeling that their concerns were not adequately addressed.
