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.

All good, per usual

Dr Thorn shared medical reasoning for course of testing recommended. He was able to listen, react, discuss, explain, and make recommendations while creating detailed notes that I was able to review in a few hours at home.

I have never trusted a medical professional more than Dr. Thorn. He is caring, thorough, and never makes our appointments feel rushed and like he has to meet a certain quota of patients per day. He saved my life [...] and I'm so grateful for his continued care.

Dr. Thorn is one of the best doctor's I have ever had. He is kind, a great listener, and very knowledgeable. I know I commented on the wait time. I understand that he is busy and that he takes time In his appointments to listen to his patients. I would wait a lot longer for him. I feel fortunate to be under his care and like I have a chance at getting healthy or at least healthier with him.
