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.

I have had 2 surgeries with Dr. Clay over the past 4 years. He is the most wonderful doctor. Surgeons have a tendency to be very cocky and do not take time for thorough explanations. Dr. Clay is not that type of surgeon. He is patient, and so down to Earth. I highly recommend him. I requested him for my most recent procedure even though my PCP was referring me elsewhere. I would trust him with my life, he is awesome.
