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.

A very likely person & provider.

Boooooooo
i was so hopeful. he took time to sit with me and ask about everything going on. he wrote down a bunch of stuff on paper and was very polite during the initial part of the visit. then i was asking questions about tests and what the next step was and he got so rude. very dismissive of my concerns for the future. i'm 23 so i don't know if he thinks it doesn't matter because i'm young or whatever, but he didn't answer any of my questions and did not provide any reassurance. plus he ordered like 4 grand worth of tests. Booooooooooo
