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 finally have a diagnosis!
I can’t tell you what a relief it is to finally have a diagnosis. I had been to 4 different doctors over the course of a year before I was referred to Dr. Seidel. It’s a wonderful feeling to know there IS something wrong and that it can be fixed. Dr. Seidel explained the problem and took the time to answer all my questions and concerns. I feel extremely comfortable with him as my doctor and am confident that I can get back to normal soon. Thank you!!
