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.

Top notch. Skillful, Patient Focused
Dr. Earnest was just so professional. Grasped what was needed and set about to take care of it. Extremely skillful, took the time required to make needed improvements, and perhaps most important to me, he explained what he found and what, how it needed to be treated. Pleasant and friendly but focused on the issues, they're what got his full attention and focus. One of the best doctors I've run across over the last few years.

Dr. Earnest helped my feet the first time I saw him and years later he is still giving me first-class foot care. Dr. Earnest recently did a surgical procedure that has healed quickly with no problems. He is always focused on his patient. I highly recommend Dr. Earnest to everyone.
