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 didn’t even get to the office yet!! And I have Hugh problem!!!! I was calling to make an appointment and I asked the girl to hold a second (I’m at work) she no me no......she didn’t have time, I was going to put my call on hold and get back to her within 2 seconds, again she said no she needed to answer other call! She hung up on me, I called back I asked to speak to an office manager and she said she was the office manager! So unprofessional and disrespectful!! I hope this complaint is seen and dealt with!!!!
