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 avoid him!
I was given a lecture on religion by Dr. Trowbridge and it was highly inappropriate. I was given zero help for my pain. He tells people that if they really want to get better, they would buy his products. Run in the other direction!

Dr. Trowbridge is very personable and likeable, and he comes across as knowledgeable. His advice, however, I find highly questionable. I went to him with severe lower back pain, and he told me that there would be no point in doing any imaging, as "there's nothing we can do about it anyway". He prescribed fruit juice pills (which he sells) and PT (which he sells). Over the next few months my pain worsened, to the point where I could barely walk. Eventually I went to another doctor, who eventually got me into an MRI machine, showing that I have severe stenosis in multiple vertebrae and multiple herniated discs. I will be undergoing epidural steroid injections and/or surgery soon. Fruit juice pills??!

I saw Dr. Trowbridge many years ago for my shoulder.I never had any Xrays or MRIs and was misdiagnosed. I wasted a lot of money on PT and most of it came out of my pocket. He tried to sell me some strange products. Stay away

This doctor was irresponsible for not wearing a mask and suggested I take mine off when I walked in for my appointment. I told him okay because I am vaccinated and assumed he was as well. When I asked he said no! He continued for the next 10 minutes to expound on all his theories why we shouldn’t be vaccinated. He also doesn’t believe in diagnostic tests-MRI s, CAT scans or X-rays before beginning physical treatments for a severely painful back problem I came to him for. Evidently there were many disturbing reviews of this doctor that I regrettably did not see before I went for this appointment.
