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.

Horrible doctor.
Dr.Shanks was my primary physician for over two years. I had stomach issues for two years and I asked multiple times for CT scan and ultra sound and he always found an excuse not to do it. I finally decided to go to emergency room to get a CT scan, where they found growth in my liver within 10 minutes. Which turned out to be cancer.
