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.

First rate: I drive 150 miles to see him
Dr. Jenkins is an experienced professional who listened to me thoughtfully and asked important questions about my health. When my small town lost its cardiologist, Dr. Jenkins was my first choice. His pleasant demeanor is nice, but I appreciate his technical expertise most.

He discounted everything I said. He spoke to me in generalizations. All he did was listen to my heart and lungs and talk and told me they don't test blood sugar and I had to go to a kidney specialist. Blood sugar issues have everything to do with high blood pressure. Medicare is getting ripped off
