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.

My wife and I met with Dr. Kierstead while my wife spent time in the ICU at Alta Bates Summit Hospital in July 2019. We both found him to be very depressing and lacking of any compassion. His message, which was presented in a very matter-of-fact way, seemed to be to remind my wife that she had a terminal illness and was unlikely to survive, either because her heart would likely stop by because her brain tumors would bleed out. Fortunately, the vast majority of the clinical staff at Alta Bates was warm, compassionate and encouraging. I hope for Dr. Kierstan’s sake and future patients, some of the compassion rubs off on him.
