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 is completely thorough. Expect your child’s in room time to take approximately 2 hours with each visit. He talks to the patient and I love that. He asks questions of mom and dad as needed or for clarification purposes only. We have been seeing him since Nov. 2017. As a nurse who works for a medical school teaching residents, I have to say, he is damn good and truly cares. We are excited to be receiving a dosage reduction and a just a little bit sad that our relationship may be coming to an end, but my child has been seizure free for over 3 years and we never had to increase his Keppra from the initial dose.

Put my child on unessesary medication that delayed her further. Overworked with no attention to detail or accurate diagnosis.
