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.

WONDERFUL
Dr.Chachu and her staff we’re wonderful. First time visit for a colonoscopy. They made me feel comfortable and explained everything in great detail. Her work was so good, I couldn’t tell I had anything done. I have great quality pictures from the procedure. Absolutely no pain or discomfort of any kind afterwards, I feel wonderful. I don’t know how often I have too have this done, but I will be requesting her ever time. She was the nicest and sweetest doctor I have ever meet.
