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 Bengochea rushed me trough the appointment. I waited 8 months for the appointment. I presented two MRI's, He looked only the old one, there were not images of the new one, and of course he reached an erroneous conclusion. He did not bother to look for new one. He placed me on a waiting list for surgery. I did not hear from Dr Bengochea for 4 months. When I called two times to find out my position on the waiting list nobody answered my question. I do not recommend Dr Bengochea, he is cold and distant, completely desinterested in the patient condition
