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.

I saw Doctor Bland for an endoscopic procedure to check my upper GI tract. From the initial consultation, to the aftercare, Doctor Bland was professional, informative, and thorough. I have suffered from GI issues for many years, and this was one of the smoothest procedures I've ever had. Besides Doctor Bland, the whole surgery team at Sutter Lakeside was absolutely amazing.

Dr Bland is a great Doctor! He is caring, compassionate and a great listener. He does not push unnecessary treatment or procedures on you. He listens, does his due diligence and provides you with your options. He is easy to talk to and easy to understand. It was quick and easy to get an appointment with him and his office staff was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Dr Bland. He is a great asset to Lake County.

Made me feel at ease while he explained the reason for my surgery and what the surgery would involve. Spoke with me and my family, acknowleding all of us. Too bad he does not do family practice, I would make him my doctor.
