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.

My wife had open heart surgery yesterday,he took her out of ICU this morning, she was getting oc 5s for pain in ICU, the next day he put her on loratabs 5mg, she has cried and screamed,all day and night, we asked nurses for help, that was a no, she takes xanax for nerves we had to beg for her to get those.He's a good surgeon but that's all I can say.My wife cried like nothing I ever saw, begged my to help her. I was helpless, and the staff was worthless.Dont let this happen to your loved one.
