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.

Would highly recommend!
Dr. Gelber was top notch and saved my husband's life. Without his experience and knowledge he would not be here with us today. His bedside manner and patience while explaining everything to us was amazing! The follow up care after brain surgery was amazing and his bedside manner and attention to our concerns was amazing. I cannot say enough good things about this doctor and his team.
