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.

I only spent a short time with the doctor. The short time I spent was fine, I would return to this doctor. He just couldn't help me with my issue at this time. I have a one year follow up appointment already scheduled.

He listened to my complaint, saw the problem, ordered the appropriate tests and started a treatment program. It took me some time to get in to see him but, for me, he was worth the wait.
