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. Huey has a rare level of patience and depth perception as a doctor. He seems to connect with his patients through wisdom. As a patient I still felt like a human To be cared about and listened to while in the "care" of other physiatrists....I felt like a problem to be medicated out of existence.
