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.

Great doctor . Provides enough time to explain What really bothers you . Very accommodating and with excellent bedside manners. I am his patient for about 10 years and still very satisfied. His staff is extremely friendly and helpful , helps you with appointment with other consulting doctors and scheduling appointment for your recommended tests.

1. Never on time 2. His office doesn't accept electronic payments 3. It's almost impossible to reach him by phone--even to make appointments 4. My wife has a history of lactose intolerance, but she must drink milk in front of the children at work. She asked him to write a brief letter explaining her stomach issues, but he wouldn't--he said that only a gastroenterologist can write one. 5. I went to his office twice last fall for a flu shot, but he told me both times that he ran out! Some PCP!

Not the nicest doctor or nurses in the office. Yelled at an elderly patient about her changing insurance, when in fact if they would spend 5 min of their time to double check, they would find out that her medicare insurance in fact has not changed. I guess they were more worried about getting paid, than about stressing the poor elderly client.
