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.

Kept me waiting for nine hours. Accused me of hurting my child. Referred me to one of his buddies in the next medical bldg when I had my own pediatrician and ped dentist. Gave me a prescription for penicillin after I told him my child was allergic to penicillin. And he never even addressed the original reason I came to his ER. My child was still bleeding when we were allowed to leave. Cretin!
