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.

Dear Jesus Christ and Dr. Robert Bruce, Thank you both for caring for my son Mozell as a child. Dr. Bruce IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE DOCTOR. HE IS ABOVE AVERAGE.

I wish I could leave 0 stars. Dr. Bruce performed spinal surgery on my sister, who is nonverbal and special needs, in Jan. 2018. He has a terrible bedside manner, very arrogant about everything. He ended up damaging her nerves and leaving her in pain for the next 4 MONTHS, insisting that nothing was wrong. Went to another doctor and they said she will need another spine surgery to repair his damage. DO NOT GO TO HIM!

Dr Bruce handled my Daughters Kyphosis - put in 2 rods and 18 screws. OUTSTANDING!!! we had been seeing him for a few years prior in hopes of not having the surgery. He did an awesome job, my daughter loved him. I highly recommend Dr. Bruce for any procedure. He took his time with her to answer her many questions, explaining in detail what was going to happen and how the outcome would be.
