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.

Best practice in Laredo. Professional, very intelligent yet compassionate at the same time. This is the ideal doctor for your children. I had a great experience.

Dr and staff helped my child get better; however, Dr lacked professionalism and compassion the moment I asked questions regarding medication prescribed to my child. It seemed that his ego was more important than the well being of his patient.
