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.

Medical care is great. [...].

I appreciate Dr. Rosales very, very much. I felt like this visit was really rushed and I didn't get to explain how I have been feeling. After going over the history of my blood work on my own I have a better understanding of the visit.

I felt seen, heard, and validated. Such a rarity in health care. I felt like my concerns could have easily been brushed off but he proposed a logical clear plan of action I was comfortable with.

Things done right
Dr Rosales is by far the best oncologist I’ve ever received care from. Not only him but the nurses on his team are proficient and well trained. I had so many things go wrong where I was last being seen and honestly just let me say if you want something done right he will do it right the first time. Compassionate and takes his time answering questions. Trust his judgment and skill 100%.

Dr. Rosales has gone above and beyond in my care. He has provided an expert opinion and has become someone who I trust. I will always be immensely grateful for his efforts to save my life when I was severely ill and for advocating for me in a complicated disease.
