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.

EXCELLENT !!
Am from the area, but live in Florida. Had hernia surgery in Fl. Two months later had to be redone, thru doctor negligence. Two years later was in need of same surgery in another area. Opted to wait until visiting my family homestead in Clayville, to find a competent surgeon there .. several longtime friends recommended Dr. Max & I scheduled with him. With my apprehension from FL surgeries, he assured me all would be well with this third procedure. And, it was. From first visit, surgery, to release all went exceptionally ! I can't begin to relay my praise for Dr. Max !! His staff, wife Cary, and Doc made me feel like family !! Thank you, AGAIN !!!! Sincerely, Anne Norton-Crane

Dr. Max is amazing!! I had my gallbladder out and I feel great. I finally have a normal life again with no pain at all and able to eat without feeling sick all the time. Very minimal scarring. Highly recommend Dr. Max.
