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.

Dr. Femino played a huge role in saving my life at the age of 12 when I was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma. It's been nearly 20 years later and I still remember his kindness and his ability to make you feel comfortable. My surgery was difficult, taking over 6 hours, and was performed in conjunction with Dr. Femino's mentor at Children's Hospital of Seattle. Not only was he able to perform flawlessly he also took a chance by saving my hip joint improving my quality of life. Thank you Dr Femino!

He is the best, he has always been my doctor since I was a young child, my family and I trust him completely. Always knows what is best for me and makes me feel safe about my medical condition. Its been more than 15 years and I am doing everything that I can now, thanks to him. Very grateful for him to be my doctor!

He takes time to listen and communicate. He never appears to be in a rush. He is down to earth, real. I have seen him change bandages, set a broken toe late at night for a cancer patient and sit down to give us as much time as we needed. He takes pride in his work, as well he should. He knows the textbook then trusts his instincts and experience to solve problems. We trust him completely and appreciate his calm kindness. I am the life partner, caregiver, participant of a patient
