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.

Dr. Stephenson is amazing. He is "the best of the best"

Dr. Stevenson explained fully well my casewas pleased with the result of my PT and offered to have me back in 6 weeks' time if I deem it appropriate; otherwise, I have fully recovered and encourage me to continue PT if I need more and I told him this time, I need to work about balance issue hence, I am continuing. He approved of it!
