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.

Excellent Physiician
Excellent physician. I was referred to Dr.DeLeon by my Urologist (in the same facilty). He had taken the time before my arrival to review my file at the UMM Portfolio prior to my arrival. He reviewed my work history and noted prior potential exposure. I don't know what the situation was with the reviewer that complained, but I found him very engaged and responsive

Would not recommend. He is rude and dismissive. Go anywhere else. He does not provide information relative to the medical condition. He is just a seat filler for UMMS so they can say they placed a specialist in a rural area. I hope some day doctor treats him as disrespectfully as he treated me.
