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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Rydel?
Dr. Rydel is an awesome doctor on so many levels but the most important, at least to me, is the fact he listens and will understand where your coming from. He knows that if you are there its not because you want to be and that your most likely afraid of what the future holds but does his best to give you the best future possible.
