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.

The doctor was great! I left feeling like I had a weight lifted off my shoulders. Love him

I moved to Florida from New Jersey, paid a premium for my health insurance just to keep Doctor Shatzkes in my network. Worth the trip to New Jersey to secure my health in the hands of a doctor who actually cares about his patients.Eddie CBoca Raton
