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.

CARING, SMART SURGEON
Recently I was admitted to HCA South Pasadena Hospital and met Dr. Armotrading. From the moment I met him, he had an excellent bedside manor. His personality was calming and made me feel extremely confident in his in-depth medical knowledge. He very carefully explained my options regarding my treatment plan and suggested what he thought would be the best course of initial treatment so that I would be able to avoid surgery. His plan worked and I am now at home recovering over the next few days. It's rare these days to be able to find a doctor as exceptional as Dr. Armotrading I cannot thank him enough for getting me thru a very scary medical emergency.

Needing to have hernia surgery was very scary. But Dr. Armotrading and his entire staff were so caring and comforting to me throughout the whole process. Especially would I like to thank Selena who is an absolute treasure and an incredible asset to your organization. I am very grateful for the outstanding care I was given. My deepest thanks!

All office staff was compassionate and comforting when I was in pain. Dr. Armotrading returned my calls and gave me support and peace of mind when I was recuperating even though it was nearly midnight. Thanks.
