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.

Neal Florence does not listen to his patients. He will treat you like you are beneath him and will use his power to hold you back from the help you deserve. Do not let this man prescribe you medicine.

Neal Florence is a not a good doctor. Do not recommend him. He treats his patients like they are some sort of criminal and holds power over you because he can. Do yourself a favor and get a better doctor who will listen to you and provide solutions to your best interests.
