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.

ER visit for SVT
The entire ER team was very busy at 10:30pm on Saturday night but all were professional and Dr Mark Cannis was exceptional. Instead of injections of metropolol and adenosine he used carotid artery massage and it stopped my 165 heart rate dropped it to 80 in seconds. He is extremely professional and thinking of all the options in a friendly and calming way. He explained everything to me and my wife. You cannot do better!
