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.

This guy is top notch. It’s worth the time to research a good doc- can’t say enough good things about him.

terrible follow up from the office, no one calls you back, can't get timely response from the doctor, and really poor communication in general. Very difficult to work with

He was the attending urologist on call at Akron General Hospital. We requested his presence for a very specific and complicated emergency issue with a cloaca patient. He refused to come in even though the attending ER requested his presence. The ER doctors told us that can’t force him to show up- even though they acknowledged that the issue was way over their level of knowledge. His disregard for patient in the ER on his night on call should be actionable.

I would highly recommend Dr. Canterbury, he is kind, considerate and trustworthy. He has a great bed side manner and makes you feel like you are the only thing that matters when he is talking to you. He has a good sense of humor which is important when dealing with the C word. He has guided us through a rough few years and are grateful we found him to care of my husband.

Dr. Canterbury is confident and caring. He explains all procedures and options very well; he is truthful but kind and very knowledgeable. He makes the patient part of the recovery process. A great combination of skill and empathy.

He is treating my husband for prostate cancer, and is just excellent, in knowledge, abilities and caring relationships with patients. He does not sit talking to his computer, but looks you in the eye and makes sure you understand everything he is saying. He is compassionate as well as personable, cannot recommend him highly enough!
