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.

She was prompt and thorough

Terrible care
My son went to Dr Long as he has been in pain in his shoulder area for years. She was dismissive, said biting remarks, and made him feel like he was nothing and he was making up his pain. When he left the appointment, he was in so much pain that he was near tears. I would not recommend Dr Joy Long for anything.

Awesome! Terrific doctor and staff.
Dr. Long and staff were awesome! Her knowledge allowed her to pinpoint my problem immediately on the first visit. The MRI confirmed her diagnosis and within two weeks I had surgery. I am now on the road to recovery.

An amazing surgeon!!!
My husband and I met Dr Long ten years ago when she did rotator cuff surgery on both of his shoulders.. She was confident, concerned and caring for her patient. Since then, I have referred many friends to her and now have reason to be her patient. How fortunate we are to have found her!!!!

She is a very nice doctor. She explains things.
She took the time to talk to us about the problem. She explained that she couldn't take of my problem but she referred me to a doctor that could in the same group.
