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 had a emergency appendectomy on Feb 15th. Dr Skattum was the surgeon. He did a excellent job and the easiest recovery. From the PA, Dr, Huynh, and my follow up Dr. Trop all was a pleasant experience. I highly recommend this group.

Dr Skattum treated my elderly mother for bowel resection surgery. He explained everything in easy to understand terms and was very kind and patient with my mother. Thank you to Dr Skattum for taking such good care of my mom.
