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.

Unhappy
I can only see him every six months. No exams. No routine bloodwork or tests. Too busy. He used to be very good. Was thorough. A HS moneymaker. Office staff is usually rude. Thus is supposed to be a Medicare agency. Older people need to see doctors on an as needed basis.

You can never retire! Just kidding but you are a great doctor. You really listen and treated my condition of Wegeners especially the eye. I'm going to an eye doc now across the street from you who has me on steroid eye drop and dexamethasone. Thank you so much for being a great doctor who really listens as to what his patients are going thru. So glad I found him. My regular primary doc wasn't doing anything. Had to make my own appt with a lung doc who diagnosed the wegeners.
