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.

It has been 10 years since I have seen this man and not a day goes by where I am not thankful of him. In 2000 I was 5 and my parents got the worst news they could of thought of. With nothing promised needing a miracle this man did what he does best. He makes miracles into realities. Thank you for my life Dr. Moriarty

I love this Dr. He has been my daughters surgeon for spina bifida since birth and she is now 18. He has always been very informative and precise about what he finds and what his surgery will persist of. He even went as far as drawing on his scrubs to explain his procedure. His bedside manor is the best and he cares so much about his patients.

Dr. Moriarty has been our 18 year old son's neurosurgeon since birth. Jalen had initial VP shunt placement at 2 days old & 1 revision at age 2 1/2 years. Dr. M's bedside manor is wonderful & he explains things so we can easily understand. I fully believe he has been a God send to our son & our family. I would & have recommended him. Very thankful to have him right here in KY.

We have heard good things about Dr. Moriarty. However, Our experience was not that good. Although we had respect and trust on the Doctor. He didn't had time to answer our questions and concerns. He didn't even touch the patient ( 6 month old). Didn't check her spine. He hardly stayed with us in the room for 2 minutes.

The absolute best doctor I have ever met. He saved my daughter's life. Anytime I call with a question the office staff is on it. Fabulous bedside manner. The best part is that he talks to my children. Not at them. He discusses how they feel and what is going on with them. My daughters LOVE him. And so do I.

Dr Moriarty was very professional and skilled with the scalpel. My son was home in three days after surgery and back to school within a few weeks. It was a very scary situation for me but Dr M was very reassuring. I highly recommend him.

Dr Moriarty is really careless. I have taken my spina bifida son to three appointments with Dr Thomas, he has never touch my son anywhere, he has no idea how his surgery scar even looks like. He never explains clearly, and always silent he waits for us to ask questions so he can tell us about the conditions and situations of our son. We always wait for at least 45min in awaiting room and when he finally comes he is always in a hurry. Everytime we leave his office,we are frustrated and stressed.
