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.

Been waiting a long time for an appointment and keeps getting canceled by the doctor’ office. First time waited 4 months for the appointment and got rescheduled by the doctor’s office. Second appointment after waiting 4 months gets rescheduled for abou 31/2 months later and a few days before the appointment, they called me again to reschedule the appointment once again for months later!! My experience. I could have seen someone else by now and had the procedure done.

Dr. Brown is an excellent physician. Prior to meeting him, I asked around and heard nothing but good things. He cares and builds a genuine rapport with his patients and their family members. I wish he was involved in my brother's care starting day 1. He explained things that gave us more understanding of the injury and what it affected not only directly, but indirectly. I would recommend Dr. Brown to anyone! Meeting Dr. Brown and he providing care was one of the best interventions made.

I took my sister for an appointment there on 7/5/16. We arrived well before our appointment time and were immediately taken back to a room. We expected a wait, but no, Nurse Nan promptly came in and attended to us. Soon after Dr. Obeid came in and not long after Dr. Brown arrived. My sister has been through a lot in the last 9 months but the staff promptly lifted her spirits. They were very personable and I felt they were really listening and addressing my sisters concerns. 100% attention.
