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 staff and physician!

Limited, but his methods which utilized Question & Answer techniques were very promising for an aging ( 83 ) patient holding a Doctoral Degree from the University of Georgia. I believe I have many cognitive miles to travel and knowledge to deliver, given the frequent company and knowledge of Dr. Mark Paradela

I gladly rated Dr Mark Paradela and his Staff with 5 stars. If I could give him 10, I would give him 10 stars! He has been my Geriatric Doctor for 5 years and I have recommended him to my family members and also my friends. He never rushes me and he listens patiently, addresses my medical issues, after the appointment, he will say “What else can I do for you?” He is the BEST Internist and Geriatrician in the State of Ga. Give him a call......he will not disappoint you. This Doctor has literally saved my life more than once.......I never leave his office without telling him “You’re the BEST!
