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.

Horrible
Dr. Ortega does not listen to his patients and believes he know it all! I don't trust his 'expertise' anymore than I would my 7 year olds medical advise! He needs to be educated on bedside manners.

I went in to the ER last night with my wife 4 days post brain surgery. She was having low blood pressure for hours and we were very concerned. Dr Ortega was extremely cocky and arrogant. He has zero bedside manner and thinks he knows it all. He was not a Dr that I would EVER choose to see again.

Not a doctor I trust
I saw this doctor in the emergency room at community hospital. He told me that the other doctors misdiagnosed me and that I am not I'll and don't have to take antibiotics that was prescribed for pneumonia. I don't trust him and actually believe the other doctors because I was actually hospitalized at community hospital just a few days before ago before seeing Dr. Ortega in the emergency room.
What went well
