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.

Always feel heard and receive good information

Alex Efird is someone who ask how you really feel, discusses matters in an easy way to understand. If there is something that is of concern to you, not to overreact but use time, and if the matter does not get better, then let's discuss this more and work out a solution if it is really needed.

As an ongoing patient Dr Efird has gotten to know me as a person as well as a patient, which is a high quality medical experience. His recommendations generally fall within parameters he believes will be acceptable to me. Call that personalized medicine I suppose. Very highly satisfied. And his office quickly responds to my occasional message.
