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.

He's an animal. I'm suffering from some PTSD after my cervical exam was done by him on September 30, 2019. He walked into the room, looked at me and proceeded to tell me how my health is "lousy." My cholesterol, my blood sugar was lousy. Gruesome lecture on smoking. Asked me if I might want to live to be 60 or 70. During exam, which to me is painful, he said"I bet you really want a cigarette now, huh?" The nurse did not stop him. I also never knew the exam included a gloved finger in my anus. I left the health department in a state of shock and cried all the way home. Reporting to medical board.
