Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I Didn't Find Him Respectful or Professional
The doctor contacted me on multiple platforms, urging me to delete my review and threatening legal action if I did not comply. Then I was contacted by an unknown number (via whatsapp) claiming to represent his legal team. This person also pressured me to remove my review and warned of legal consequences if I refused. While I understand that reviews can be a sensitive matter, I found these repeated attempts intimidating and unprofessional. After I posted my honest and respectful review about my experience with Alper Tuncel, I also received an irritating message from him via WhatsApp, saying: “I hope you just rot and go away.” This was deeply upsetting, as I had expressed my concerns in a polite and constructive manner without any personal insults.
In addition, shortly after my review was posted, I noticed a sudden influx of overwhelmingly positive comments on his Google profile. To me, this gave the impression that former patients may have been encouraged to leave reviews in response, which could potentially skew the overall perception of his ratings.
I am sharing my experience because I believe that honest and unbiased reviews are essential for helping patients make informed decisions. It is disappointing to see a professional react to constructive criticism with what I perceived as intimidation tactics across multiple platforms, followed by an apparent effort to overshadow negative feedback with positive reviews. Transparency and professionalism are crucial in building trust, and unfortunately, this experience has left me questioning both.)
I had a detailed conversation with the doctor, during which he was friendly and discussed my concerns at length. I got the impression that he tries to engage with patients. However, I noticed that he does not seem very open to criticism.
When I looked at his Instagram profile, I observed that some of the “after” photos, such as those of endoscopic facelifts, appeared filtered. It wasn’t just that the skin looked smoother—one particular “after” photo that was posted at two different times appeared altered in the later post. The shape of the face seemed adjusted, as if through editing or filters.
I politely reached out via Instagram to ask about this, providing screenshots to clarify my observations. Initially, the doctor responded kindly and explained that his employees were responsible for the images. He assured me that the patient looked more like the photo I felt had been edited. However, when I then asked if he could show me the unedited version of another photo, his response changed. He told me to look for another doctor. I emphasized that I was being respectful in my questions, but shortly afterward, I was blocked from his profile.
In my opinion, transparency and trust are essential in this sensitive field. For me, this includes being willing to answer questions openly and professionally
