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 consulted with Dr. Becker to do an umbilical hernia surgery for me. He told me that he had done many. No problems. When I woke up after the surgery, my navel was gone and there were stitches pushing up on my skin. Subsequently I had to go to another doctor to have one of the stitches removed and now the second one has worked it way out through the skin too. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to ever go to this man for anything medical.
