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.

AVOID THIS MAN
I Saw Dr. Trotter for Hep C and end stage cirrhosis. He offered me nothing but death. I found a clinical trial for Hep C on my own, was accepted and CURED of Hep C in 12 weeks after 25 years of this awful disease. I went back to see Trotter afterward and he asked, 'What did you do?' He could find no evidence of my former Hep C or cirrhosis and was astonished. If I had continued with this man I would have been dead and my wife widowed, but 10 years since then I have lived a happy, healthy, fulfilling life with my precious wife in the beautiful home I built. I am still going strong, thankful for every day, but NO THANKS to Dr James Trotter. Please be careful and avoid this man if you value your life.

Doctor Trotter decided to tell my husband he didn't qualify for a liver transplant because he was too sick without any support in the room. I had to run home quick and my name and number were on the board yet he didn't call. He dropped the news and left him ALONE! When I got to the hospital he was called back to the room but showed no compassion or empathy of any kind. He still didn't understand the interaction was wrong after I explained why it was wrong. Just a horrible human. Try and avoid him if you can because he's going to continue to not care how he makes people feel.

Not the same
Dr. Trotter is a very good doctor. Unfortunately, some of his staff have come across as unprofessional, patronizing, and rude in my opinion.
