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.

Great Doctor!
Dr. Peter was nothing but nice and understanding when I had a run-through with him. He made me feel like easily express what I was trying to say. Best doctor I have ever had!

I recommend Dr. Cridge to any and everybody. When taking my daughter to the emergency room, Dr. Cridge treated her quickly and efficiently. He even was able to comfort my panicking self, and everything went well. He treated us as though we were part of his family. His own family must be so lucky to have him. Definitely recommend!

Very relaxed and calming doctor. When I came to see him, Dr. Cridge explained what was wrong and what I should have done to prevent it in the future. I would recommend Dr. Cridge to anyone who comes to the emergency room in the future. Thank you Dr.!

Dr. Cridge was the best doctor I have ever met. When I brought my son to the ER after fracturing his arm early in the morning, Dr. Cridge gave us the upmost respect. He handled my son and I with care, and he made the whole process very simple. The nurses and other staff at the ER made us feel very safe as well. Even my son felt comfortable with Dr. Cridge’s care.

Dr. Cridge was the most knowledgeable and caring doctor I have ever met. Not only did he walk me through each step of his treatment, but he acted as considerate as my own family members would. Because of Dr. Cridge’s thoughtfulness, I had a good experience in the ER and would not hesitate to see him again if I ever needed to go back to the ER. In addition, the nurses were extremely caring and calming, making the whole experience more relaxing.

Dr Cridge saw me when I went to the ER. He was so kind and calming, figured out my problem quickly and had me on my way quickly. Everyone else in the ER was great, too. While I hope not to have to go to the ER again, if I do, I hope to see Dr. Cridge again.

He is inconsiderate and does not value his patients' needs. He is the rudest, most arrogant, and absolute worst doctor I have ever had. He discharged me when I still could not move my upper body because I had been in excruciating pain for seven hours. He refused to conduct any tests on me because it would have been expensive for the hospital. He discharged me in this state. Please pick another doctor to avoid leaving the emergency room in the same state in which you arrived.
