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.

Dr. Hessburg is a knowledgeable, kind, caring physician who listens to your concerns and explains in detail and in words you can understand the treatment/path to wellness he has set for you. What more could you ask for? Nothing. I consider myself very very fortunate to have Dr. Hessburg as one of my Henry Ford Health Care physicians.
