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.

Unconcerned Doctor
Did not care about how I was feeling on my medication he acted an in aloof matter. He brushed me off so quickly and didn't really show any concern or care about what I was feeling. When I asked for other options with medication, because the one I was currently taking made me feel unlike myself, groggy, sleepy 24/7, and stopped me from doing my daily activities he showed no concern he didn't even ask the symptoms I was feeling on the medication he truly did not give a crap and he didn't even try to help me.

Dr Lipato has remarkable bed side manner. Dr. Lipato genuinely has concern for his patients health.. Takes the time to explain in detail to the patient and family all aspects of his care.. Dr Lipato is an active listener.. After 43 days of him caring for our family member, we are very fortunate to have him as the leader of the Care Team! .. Great hire VCU!

Unfortunately misdiagnosed cancer case in my family as musculoskeletal issue. So much for VCU. We are losing patience with poor medical care in this city.
