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. Cao genuinely cared for my health, he took the time to explain the relation between my stress level, nutrition and exercise habits with my heart health in a very easy to understand manner. Answered all the questions I had about the medications he prescribed to me, and is always available for questions and concerns. The waiting time at the lobby is always very short in his office.
