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.

Not interested
He was not interested in me or anything I had to say. He follows one protocol all of the time which is to do nothing. If you want to just talk about the world, then he’s a fine conversationalist, but if you want to talk about your symptoms, he is just going to let in go in one ear and right out of the other. I wasted A LOT of time and money going to see him, but what I really wasted was my hope and trust.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Pearson?
He claims to be an Infectious Disease physician when really he is not interested in infectious disease at all. He does not believe in any microscopic organisms. It is absolutely puzzling as to why in the world he chose infectious disease when he chooses to not believe they exist. Why didn’t he chose a different specialty such as OB because all he wants to do is follow someone else’s protocol. He completely lacks original thought. His motivation is unclear. It is quite possible that he is like most physicians today who are in it for the money. Don’t waste your time going to see him because he only wants to talk about himself. Hopefully he’s retired by now so he can stop wasting everyone’s time & health. If I could give negative stars I would. Do your homework and look at his so called research articles which are not really research at all.
