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 Fairchild is very smart knowledgeable and confident. He’s a good teacher and trainer. He was able to quickly get to the bottom of my issue. I highly recommend him!

very thorough, understanding, and came up with a definitive diagnosis and treatment plan for a very difficult case. He will answer all your questions with a very specific answer and is not vague with a wait and observe perspective. He is quick to have his colleagues in the exam room for verification or another perspective. He read all my treatment notes from my dermatologist, orthopedist, and g.p, as well as all the labs. He confirms these with your narrative in the exam room. The ultrasound was amazing finding the anomalies in so many of my joints with definitive findings. I would highly recommend Dr Fairchild. The four hour drive and navigating through the Stanford complex was more than worth the trip.

I have been seeing Dr. Fairchild for several years, and he shows great care toward my health and my life. He explains information thoroughly and answers questions with patience. When he makes a decision, he uses a comprehensive perspective instead of only basing on lab results, and he asks for the patients' opinions for the most suitable treatments.
