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.

Called last Tuesday with an urgent medical need - was told that the soonest I could get in would be a week later, and if he had any openings they would call. Saw another doctor that day who told me I would have gotten much worse had I not begun treatment that day. Received a call from Dr. Shapiro’s office today confirming my appointment (that I didn’t make) with a doctor I have never heard of. Also was told in the msg that this doctor couldn’t treat me and would have to refer me. WATCH OUT!!

Have been trying to make a appointment for 3 days. They have you on hold extremely to long. 15 minutes on hold us ridiculous. My time is valuable also
