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.

Impersonal, impatient, unprofessional. you can hear him loudly criticize other patients while hes dictating his notes. Doesnt listen to your issues has a know everything attitude.. everyone is uniquely different.. '

Never saw my X-Rays for vertebral fracture. Never told what my limitations or expectations were. Just felt left on my own devices.

My MRI shows various back problems, including nerve encroachment on the L5 disc. I went to Dr. Comerford and explained that I have pain radiating down my back into my legs. He suggested I take Advil. I kid you not. He offered no help at all.
