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 greatest Doctor I've ever met.
He is the best at explaining everything clearly. He will tell you exactly what you need to know about your health. He will answer all of your questions with honesty and will prescribe you exactly what you need. He listens to your concern and will give you advice if needed. He has gained the trust of so many people which is a good thing for being a doctor. I am glad he is my PCP.

He's a young man in his mid to late twenties, yet to hear him speak you'd think him your elder. He has no sympathy for those in chronic pain, even with a clean tox report and no wish for pain killers. If you see this doctor, expect to be denigrated and chastised if you're not an able bodied person. Avoid at all costs, preferably including the institution in which he works if at all possible, dinner they obviously don't care. More worried about your health insurance type than your health issues.
