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 Ashworth performed a bi-lateral inguinal hernia repair surgery on me recently. I found him to be thorough in explaining everything necessary about the procedure and what to expect as a patient during recovery. I was very comfortable with his bedside manner and absolutely recommend him and his team for this type of surgery.

Dr Ashworth removed my gallbladder after tests revealed a growing lesion. Surgery went and recovery went beautifully even though my gallbladder was adhered to my liver and made things more complicated than atcipated. I would highly recommend Dr Ashworth. He is patient, through and kind in addition to being an excellent surgeon.
