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 broke my femur when I was 17. He put my femur back together and didn’t align the bone. Since his so called repair, I have devolved hip problems and I cannot stand with my feet and hips straight. Free consulting with two other orthopedic surgeons, in order to fix this problem, I would have to have my femur re-broken.

The Doctors are absolutely amazing! Very knowledgeable and great at their job. But their staff is horrendous. The nurses are ok.. not that friendly. But the receptionist is absolutely awful. She does not care about the patients or even if the patient is in need of getting forms sent of to get disability she can not take 10 minutes out of her way to fax a paper off. We were very impressed with the Doctor just not his staff.
