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.

As a diagnostician
Dr. Shein from merely examining me pronounced that I had thalassemia minor. A subsequent blood test confirmed this diagnosis. Since then, over ten years ago, he has continued to be an outstanding physician.

Dr Shein was The only doctor that listened thoroughly to my history and wanted to run tests according to me personally. He’s the only doctor out of almost 20 doctors that knew I had something seriously wrong, As I had a fairly hidden disease,and he is really a kind and caring person.
