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.

Absolutely traumatizing. Doesn’t listen, doesn’t answer questions, doesn’t communicate. I feel worse after leaving his office. “eat more and exercise”. wow thanks MD. that’s so helpful i will simply “eat more”. I like to have a lot of information regarding my meds and unfortunately i have never had an appointment last over 10 minutes. I get kicked out so fast. If you want a doctor who doesn’t care about you or your well-being at all this is your guy.

I had a good experience with him. He listened to me, about my depression, and talked about a couple of ways for us to proceed. Just the opposite experience from the two above. I will use him again.

Very poor bedside manner. He does not seem to really care about his patients. I have never had an appointment last over 5 minutes with him he wants you out as fast as possible. He does not take time to explain anything or explore options. It's all "You need to exercise"

Good knowledge, but poor communication and bedside manner. Don't ask a question about the medications he prescribes or he will drop you like a hot potato. If you want a "my way or the highway" doctor, he is your guy.

Without consulting me, and after seeing me only twice, lowered the dosage of a medication I have been taking for a awhile. I only found out he lowered the dose when I went to pick up the script at my pharmacy. Very unprofessional.
