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.

One of the best physicians I have met. Dr. A was kind, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable.

I came in on an ambulance because I could not sit up, much less walk, and waited 2 hours to be seen. She was incredibly unhelpful until I mentioned my GP's name. I believe she is a product of an abused system where people without insurance plague the emergency room. She did not take the time to listen to me and just gave me dilaudid for pain. Maybe she's seen too many cry babies in the ER. I ended up having spine surgery the next day after I demanded to be admitted for pain management.
