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.

ER MD didn't come in to see/examine patient. Sent NP with no urgency to pt in excruciating pain of 9/10, R lower side&vomiting. Stated they would order fluid. Pt & family had to ask for something for the 9/10 pain & was told that they do not give pain meds or narcotics. Waited over 45mins for toradol. Called for something else when didn't help pain. Waited longer, was refused&discharged still same condition as going in, nothing for pain/nausea at home. Never seen MD who signed discharge papers.
