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 am so lucky to have Dr. Pimentel taking great care of me. He is truly a professional & listens to what I say.

Dr. Pimentel exemplifies every quality of an outstanding physician. His skills and human kindness [ & those of his assistant Janet Soto] are what the overall Cedars experience used to be about.

Absolutely excellent doctor and staff. Treated me for SIBO three and a half years ago and I've done very well. Very thorough testing and you are treated as if you are their only patient. Highly recommend.
