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!
Attentive and knowledgeable of my history to be able to treat me safely . Staff is amazing! No better Neurologist in the area or in Rochester. So nice to be treated by a Dr who focuses on you and not his computer. A Dr who discusses options and reviews what is best for you. Staff is quick to assist you and responds quickly. Highly recommend!!!

The WORST when you don't get relief.
Dr King to me was an amazing Dr at first, but everything went down hill after he was rude to me and to my husband and after that he himself just changed. He didn't like me as his patients wife and proxy telling him wear to go. He left us with no answers and never did anything about the reason for why my husband was having so many seizures and the ER due to his notes refused to treat him being in a 12 hr grandmal seizure. We are currently looking at a different Dr in Syracuse NY.

Provider did not address the reasons for referral which included a brain tumor and MS work up. He was incredibly rude and disrespectful, including rolling his eyes at my questions. I would not recommend him to anyone, especially not a patient with complex health issues.

He was the only doctor who helped to tell me that I had MS and was chasing answers for more than 5 years. I will truly miss him being in the Murray area and his new patients are very lucky to have him.

Dr King is patient and soft-spoken but at the same time eager to understand a patient's difficulties. His knowledge of treatments, tests and medications makes the patient feel well cared for. It is such a loss that he is moving away from Kentucky in April 2017.

Dr. King was one of the WORST doctors I have ever seen. One of the rudest as well. I would NEVER recommend him even my worst enemy.

Even though he couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, he was extremely thorough and honest! A nice change from most Dr. in this area. Wasn't a pill pusher.

This was my first time seeing Dr. King. I was impressed with this knowledge and he is exceptionally good in communicating with patients. I am very happy to now have him as my neurologist. Every staff member I encountered was efficient and very polite.
