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.

Did not help me at all or give me any answers. Went for an issue with high white blood cells never followed up with me personally when he said he would had to call multiple times to get some answer which ended up with no answer very unprofessional!

Excellent, he has taken great care of my mother, who is being treated for breast cancer. We interviewed 3 doctors, and he by far was the best, no unnecessary tests, explains everything, and very compassionate.

My diagnosis is mantle cell lymphoma. They are moving extremely fast, which added some initial confusion on scheduling, but I think it was understandable with what they percieve as the urgency. Dr. Avetia is very good at answering all the questions we had.
