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.

Great surgeon. Second surgeon I’ve used in this group, both were wonderful. Both have the best bed side manner.

Excellent job. I am happy with the outcome of the procedure. I was very grateful that the doctor was willing to be flexible on the scheduling. I would recommend the surgery center over the hospital because the hospital is too expensive.

I had surgery and feel I had great results. I lost over 130 lbs and have kept it off for 3 years. Dr Faulkenberry makes time to answer my questions and teaches me about my health, labs and test results. Friendly and helpful staff. I could not ask for more. My health has improved greatly!
