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.

Dr. Erickson is always very thorough. I have just not been feeling well - not a very specific symptom - but Dr. Erickson takes me through the possibilities with appropriate testing to follow. I feel confident that he will get to the bottom of my problem with a corrective solution. Dr. Erickson is a great doctor.
