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.

I wouldn’t bring my enemy hete
He didn’t listen nor offer any info about how to help me. He took me off my medication without any reason and didn’t explain why.

Best Arthritis Dr. Ever!
Dr. Head diagnosed my arthritis when others had misdiagnosed it. The medication he put me on got me walking again and every annual visit is a pleasure. I highly recommend him if you are suffering from aches, pains, and swollen joints!

Dr Head is very kind and empathetic to my chronic aches and pains. I feel he engages me in decisions on how to proceed with treatment. Dr Head has eased my pain.

This doctor couldnt possibly be worse. RUN. After being diagnosed with RA, I had a million questions for him about lifestyle changes and he literally told me to google it. Thanks Doc, I thought I was paying you so i didnt have to google it.

It took me 2.5 years until my insurance finally let me change rheumatologists. Dr. Head's bed-side manners are absolutely horrible. He never once looked directly at me when I talked with him. I HAD TO MAKE suggestions about treatment and now I found out that I have another autoimmune disease that he overlooked and probably will end my life sooner than if it had been diagnosed earlier. Do NOT chose this doctor if you have other choices.
