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.

Absolutely, unequivocally, documents up on the wall, the worst provider my family and I have ever experienced. If this "doctor" is you or your family's hospitalist, 1) run screaming and 2) ask for a replacement...which you have every right to do...unfortunately this fact came to light too late for us. His communication with patients and family is pathetic, quality of care = he misdiagnosed my father... with a near catastrophic blunder. And when we needed answers this character was nonexistent. My family has been in healthcare and education for 40 years, 15 years in the Sarasota/Bradenton area. Learn from our experience, you have the right to request another physician if Dr. Howell is the assigned clinician.
