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.

Overly supportive
I relied so much on Dr Barnes and in everything he told me regarding my husband's stroke. He was optimistic and hopeful! Too much. False hope is not helpful. He warned that my husband might walk a little funny and it would only be a problem if he was a musician (which he was). Nine months later, he still can't walk a step and probably never will. Please don't lie to your patients or their health care advocates. We make decisions based on what you tell us. You should be ashamed.
