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.

A heat moon caused the middle of my nose to dry up and fall out. i don't have a septum; mine's out of a different textbook. They did not help me sue the culprit. They're deep within the guitar hero kit through the AHS grid. If that matters to anyone. That is full of malpractice all on its own. For the love of Pete, a lot of these people are running from alias names. It says that their surgery team is actually from Portugal. Everything at that hospital is pharmed right now by the way.

Dr Portugal spent all the time we needed in the office to inform and answer questions. He is so knowledgable, skilled and kind. We can't say enough good about him. He performed a delicate surgery successfully. Besides these excellent qualities, he is humble.
