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.

Go to someone else!
I’m a home care nurse who cares for one of Dr. Williams patients. In the 4 years of caring for this patient I have called Dr. Williams office at least 25 times. NEVER ONCE has he returned a call. He is oblivious to prior authorizations. He does not care about his patients and he does absolutely nothing as far as “going above and beyond”. Finally after 4 years of dealing with Derrick Willian’s the patient is starting to look for a new doctor. If anyone reading this is considering Derrick Willian’s to be your physician, I would STRONGLY encourage you to keep looking.
