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.

Chest pain dismissed
Went in having symptoms of chest pain, palpitations, feeling lightheaded, chest pressure. Nothing was done other than an EKG a chest x ray and labs. He was dismissive of my previous EKGS and then went off topic. Didn’t seem concerned whatsoever and told me to wait for my Zio results to come in and go from there… very disappointed

Dismissive and patronizing
I went to the KVH ER with a possible ectopic pregnancy. Dr.Ghermay did not ask before pressing on my lower stomach and pelvic area, was incredibly dismissive and didn’t seem to believe me about my symptoms, and was extremely patronizing while talking about my situation after finding out I took anxiety medication. I went to planned parenthood the next day, and they sent me to the Yakima ER for further evaluation which resulted in immediate results of a miscarriage after an ultrasound, which he did not want to perform.
