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.

MD has zero personality. disinterested. looks like he hates his job. got about 45 seconds of his time and barely examined me-left unsatisfied and I am still stick 3 days later.

Worst doctor I’ve ever seen in the ER. Uncaring, unprofessional, didn’t care to listen to your issues didn’t care to explain the test results i had to rely on the nurses to answer all my questions, told him i was having chest pains and he act like i was faking it, my bp was high, i was having abdominal pains and he treated me like i was there just because. Worst experience with a doctor I’ve ever had

Worst doctor in Emergency department i’ve Ever seen and my wife has been in emergcy rooms 6 times due to numerous serious illnesses. There was no hands on, discussing problem,symptoms, and pain with my wife. Took blood test and CT scan whose results did not match same tests taken days before and said his results were not enough to admit her. Would not call GI doctor who recommended that my wife go emergency room. He has no doctor/patient skills dealing with patient. Should be selling hotdogs.

I'd give him zero if i could. Came in to ER because i passed out from heatstroke. He treated me like i was a drug addict, a dreg of society. He tried taking my blood and messed up the process TWICE. I declined a third draw and walked out still feeling sick, then i was billed $1,500 for basically nothing. Stay away from this p.o.s. if you are dying of a gunshot and he's at the ER.....go to a different ER.

Excellent Doctor. Took great care of my mother when she was in the ER. He was thorough and followed up on her care. I have never met a more caring and diligent ER doctor.

Very judgemental. Unprofessional. Presumption that everyone has an agenda. Paranoid.
