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.

Reckless care. Beware
Misdiagnosed a tumor for 4 years. Resisted repeated requests for an MRI which finally confirmed the tumor after 4 years of negligent care.

Simply The Best!
I had a lithotripsy today. Had 2 lithotripsys with Dr. Hoofnagle about 10 years ago. The staff and doctor are awesome! The procedure was thoroughly explained. All were patient and caring. I will not go to anyone, other than Dr. Hoofnagle and have referred some co-workers to him, who are totally satisfied. I first heard of Dr. Hoofnagle years ago, when he repaired a bladder, after the patient's original doctor, well, let's just say he wasn't 5 star. Dr. Hoofnagle is, "simply the best"! If I could give him 10 stars, I would. If you have him treat you, you won't be disappointed.

Removed my kidney and provided excellent care. Have been under his care before he even opened his own practice. Would not even think of going to any other urologist. I consider him a friend as well as my Doctor. He is my go to guy when ever I need a name for a Doctor for a different field of Care. He is both professional and personable in his treatment to his patients.
