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.

He was dismissive, insensitive, and abrupt. Has often complained about other patients and acted like he was being put upon and would rather not be there.

Doesn't seem to want to be a doctor
not engaged, and not pleasant to visit. A bit grumpy, doesn't listen particularly well and gives the impression that he'd like to be anywhere other than right here, right now.

Dr. Tate takes the times to answer all your questions and concerns. It is important to him that his patients understand their condition, the prescription drugs they are taking and why they are taking them; you are never rushed out of the office!
