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.

wish more could have been done
wish he realized the lower part of his pain were his issue, I know that picking patients coming in from places that is unfavorable to society, they get what they get, so sorry you feel this way about them.

cannot tell, because the start was not a sucess, and waiting for more medical work from him for my son. I am sure he is a very outstanding surgeon but due to where my son is and insurance is not willing to pay, I can see where he may want to be limited, but this is his profession and no amount of $$ should deter him from doing what he loves to do as a profession. His gold should be to make you whole again, this should make all the difference in the world to him.
