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 was very impressed with everyone at New West especially Dr. Crocket. On my initial visit he took the time to ask me about my life and life stile to help us determine if I should have my rotator cuff fixed now or wait. In the end it was my decision and my decision alone.
