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.

Feels like he has one foot out the door when he visits hospital patient - and very bored. He does not answer specific questions but instead talks about his choice for you - which is the best choice, always. Refuses to accept no for an answer and heightens patients needs as somehow their fault. The most unfortunate part is he thinks he decides who is worthy of treatment or is ok to withhold treatment if you are too old or ?. Makes me wonder if he also decides who is worthy based on the color of their skin. Sadly he's cold and out of touch.
