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.

BEWARE...I found this doctor to be arrogant, condescending, unprofessinal and dismissive. He mocked me and questioned me as to why I even came to see hlm and told me to come back in a year. Two months later I had had a heart attack that required two arteries to be opened and a stent, BEWARE.

My mom was a former patient of his; I think my mom saw the Nurse Practitioner more than him.

He would be a better doctor if he left his ego at the door and stopped criticizing competing institutions.
