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.

Pain Control
Had abdominal hiatal hernia repair. Given 12 pain pills on discharge 24 hours after surgery. Requested a refill. Told to take ibuprofen. Inadequate pain control.

Kind & Understanding Dr
Dr Goethals reviewed surgery step-by-step. She was empathetic & addressed all my concerns. She even combined surgeries to avoid another visit. She went above & beyond when she reshaped the area to avoid plastic surgery.

She kept talking over me and cutting me off when I tried to explain my symptoms. I know time is precious but I waited several weeks to get in and had multiple things going on. I felt she did not respect me or my concerns. No compassion from this doctor what so ever.
