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.

If you're expecting help?
I don't have Dr. Hughes I've been handed off 3 times now. In terms of the professionalism no. My doctor only has interest in shoving the flu vaccine on me or any other pills that he can justify offering me. Then he rushes out of the room like I stink. Also when they say they're giving you a physical all that really means is blood pressure and weight then it's all about whose next. It's up to you but I'd say be aware.

Misses the mark
Office always seems to be in a state of confusion. People are herded like cattle into rooms, where you wait for an eternity. You spend 5 minutes with an NP, even though you requested and scheduled to speak with an MD.
