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.

Best ever!!!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Applegate?
I saw Dr. Applegate on a Saturday which I totally appreciate that their office is open extended hours, but I did not feel like he was willing to address all of my questions and concerns, I did feel rushed and feel like only 1 out of 2 of my concerns were addressed. I feel like he just wanted to lock onto 1 thing and only address that, at that point I could tell exactly where the conversation was going and how it would end. I felt a little pressured to just accept what he was saying without any discussion. I know doctors need to maintain professional distance and control of the situation but how can you treat my problems If I don't even feel comfortable enough to express myself. I definitely felt like part of an assembly line rather than a person.
