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 pleasant and positive.e Makes me glad that I see him.

Dr Michaels has been with me from the day I went into the hospital with a bad heart and through the heart transplant and recovery period. I don't know if I would be here today if he had not been with me from day one
