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.

This Dr has no compassion for his patients, insulted and belittled them. This patient has been struggling with this disease for 2 years. It's very rude to be told that your medication is probably something you can't afford. His assistant was very rude as well and told the patient to clean his ears. Which is unprofessional and uncalled for. This is inexcusable and I will definitely pass the word around.

I was sent to Dr Lau because Yuma doesn't have alot of choices. Sadly he was a very young, energetic Dr who wanted to experiment on me simply to satisfy his curiosity. Fresh from surgery, he gave no mind to the pain I was in. I left sore, angry and frustrated with the unprofessional secretaries who create your appointments. They scold you as if you're a child for attempting to interrupt their chatting. Cancer Center is a joke.
