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.

The best of the best! If I could give Dr. Alwood a 10 star, I would do it! Not only is he genuinely concerned for each his patients but he brings a deeper level of knowledge and experience to the table. He is truly 'patient first' and thinks outside the box to evaluate what is really going on and how best to treat it. In a virtual call I attended with my husband for his migraines, I learned information from Dr. Alwood that might help our daughter with her migraines; information that her doctors at John Hopkins Medical center had never mentioned. We are truly blessed to have Dr Alwood treating my husband; we couldn't be in better hands.

Dr Ben Alwood...the best of the very best!
Telehealth
I just received treatment from Ben Alwood, a neurologist at UF Health (University of Florida). He is nothing short of amazing! Very personable. Very knowledgeable. Extremely up-to-date with all of the very latest available treatments. Willing to take as much time as needed to get to the bottom of the issue I was facing. He suggested several solutions to my issue and we will pursue 3 of those. I know of a senior Neurologist at Johns Hopkins (MD) who is not nearly as good. I am so glad that i am in Florida where UF doctors can treat me when i have needs.

The best neurologist I’ve ever met
I'm thoroughly impressed by the exceptional staff and doctors at this hospital. I previously thought Baptist was the ultimate hospital, but UF Health Shands Trauma in Jacksonville has surpassed them. The care I received over the last couple days has been truly life-changing. So grateful and Blessed for my entire neurology team and GOD above
