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.

We had a virtual visit today. He was so kind and made sure all my questions were answered. He noticed we have a piano and at the end of the visit, he asked my 8 year old son to play him a song on the piano. He then praised him for his talent and encouraged him to continue. I am humbled to tears at his kindness and thoughtfulness.
