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.

Dynamite doctor. One of the only surgeons I’ve met in 50 years with a wonderful bedside manner. Seems extremely knowledgeable and intelligent, & is just delightful. Is a “farm boy” who is interested in practicing medicine rather than in making money. He is absolutely first rate & impressive as all get out.
