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.

Five star doctor!
He is friendly, has a sense of humor and thorough. Very good doctor.

Dr. Geffen, Pat, and Michelle are the best! They are thorough and detailed. They take the time to call you back, ask questions, and send you to the lab. They follow up. I am happy that I have them on my side with my health. They display excellent bedside manners. They are very nice and I am thankful to be with them. I ponder sometimes about what I am going to do when or if retirement comes upon them; but I am going to try to not worry and Trust in GOD!!!!!!!! They are definitely assets to SouthCoast Health!

Best Doc
As an original patient of Dr Geffen when he first began to practice medicine, I would have to say he’s truly one of the best. His nurses are also the best. They all take care of me medically and I am blessed to have them in my life. Dr Geffen is highly regarded by his peers that I have dealt with.
