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.

He saved my life. He is a very caring Dr and listened & explained the orocedure very well. Was never rushed when we meet for after care.

Dr. Astra is amazing, I had 3 prior hernia surgeries and he saved my life. He preformed a 4th repair because of what the prior surgeons had done to me my insides were like (in Dr Astra's words) swiss cheese & I dever oped a blockage. Dr Astra worked on me for over 7 hrs and I've been great with no problems for the past 2 yrs. He's very compassionate and he listens.
