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.

Dr. Young is simply the best! Ask the doctors who call him their doctor.

I see him annually for a checkup and more frequently if I am experiencing symptoms that seem more than expected. I have been going to him for more than 25 years. He asks questions on how things are going. He is direct, honest and clear on what his diagnosis or medical opinion is on a concern he or I may have. He listens to what I have to say and then gives options to follow. A genuinely good person and a very competent Doctor.

Dr. Young is a very thorough, knowledgeable physician. He never rushes his patients (my parents, husband and I all go to him). Dr. Young always follows up when he says he will. I highly recommend him as a physician

Extremely satisfying as I had some concerns of a possible stroke. He wanted everything checked out immediately and made sure that I was able to get appointments with the necessary people right away
