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.

The dr seemed nice enough until I asked him for a separate medication because my 3 year old has diabetes. I kindly tell him that her being so young and diabetic she is just chalk full of sugar and it would be best for her to have it on hand and I will not use unless she needs it. His voice changed and with a shaking cheek he say, "I have been doing this for 20 years and you know how many times i have prescribed it?" Then held up a 0 on his hand. I cannot write a full review not enough room.
