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.

Scam. Paid money upfront over the phone to see this doctor and he cancelled my appt and haven't heard from him since. No one answers phone.

Charges desperate pt abs doesn’t examine Pt or even talk to him. That would be my dad with severe traumatic brain injury. He should be shut down. He’s a marijuana peddler and doesn’t even try to help you. You don’t have to see this joke of a doctor to get a card. Do not go to marijuanadoctors.com as that is how I found this charlatan. Will be reporting him to DEA, medical board and putting word out there. He meets you in a Regus office wearing scrubs and just processes the paperwork for the MJ.

David is an absolutely awesome person. He is a professional and a caring compassionate to everyone he talks with. Not only was he able to find a solution to my problem even though it was not through him with no benefit to him. He pointed me in the right direction and explained everything to me step by step. I was absolutely amazed at the time he took and went over everything. It's hard to find doctors like him now a days.

Wonderful experience! Dr. Footerman is extremely thorough, empathetic and has an incredible "bedside manner." I felt completely comfortable discussing my long-time chronic illnesses and pain with him; more so, he listened and responded compassionately! I feel very fortunate to have found such a professional and caring physician!

I have been struggling with horrific pain from brain cancer and trigeminal nerve damage from 3 brain surgeries within 3 months. Doctors have attempted 32 prescription drugs and nothing will tame the pain. It was time to find a medical marijuana doctor. Having never gone down this path, I was nervous. But then I talked to Dr. Footerman when he called to tell me I was accepted. He is so kind and explains everything step by step. Yet, his intelligence is so impressive! Highly recommend him!!
