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.

A very happy patient :)
Excellent!!! The front staff treat you like a member of the family, I never felt rushed and Dr Murphy answered all my questions and when I call they tell me to come right down. I have been seeing Dr Murphy for 15 years now and all my family goes to him too, and they are all happy that they go there too WE HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES. HE IS THE BEST!!!

My years of being a patient with Dr. Murphy was fine up until the last several years where it became incredibly difficult to obtain an appointment to see him. The front desk staff while intermittently pleasant, triage the symptoms of the patience over the phone, recommend over the counter medications to take, and direct them to the emergency room all without you ever seeing or speaking to Dr. Murphy. When discussing the process with Dr. Murphy, he claims to have no knowledge. Most unfortunate.
