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 have been seeing Dr. Sames for over 10 years. He is always conscientious and attentive. I feel he listens to my problems and uses that information to pursue a diagnosis, rather than other docors I have gone to who heard the first few words, decide what is probably the problem, then try to fit the symptoms into that decision. He is very knowledgable about current practice. He always tells me what he is thinking, what he would like to do about it, then lays out my options.

Dr. Sames has been the pediatrician and primary care physician for my family since 1996. He is by far the most well informed, conscientious doctor I have known. I love that fact that he is pediatric and family practice certified, so he can provide care for us for throughout our lifetimes.
