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.

I have known and gone to Dr Lindaman for years, as have several of my family members. He is extremely knowledgeable and a fast and accurate diagnostician. He is very honest and will never try and get you to pay for more than you need. I highly recommend him.

This was by far the worst experience I've had with any doctor. He showed no compassion, especially when our daughter was put into a full body harness due to hip dysplasia. It's a traumatizing thing to see your 3 week old baby put into this thing. He also cranked her legs apart with great force that we think he might have done more harm than good. Instead of waiting for our daughter to stop crying and relax her legs/hips, he just went and did his stress test still. Our new and current doctor
