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.

I am a retired Army general surgeon/surgical oncologist who desperately needed a reliable colleague outside of the complicated mutual referring "specialists" in a downtown Houston network to manage my sister in law's chronic partial SBO after months of "benign neglect". Samir operated promptly, found a partial SBO, from a neglected chronic J/J intusussception based on her J tube required for giving Parkinson meds in a diabetic with gastric stasis, dealt with it definitively, and saved her life. Our family is forever grateful!
