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.

Absolute disappointment of a doctor. He needs to stop practicing medicine because he's too set in his ways and doesn't give a crap about what you have to say. Literally is the rudest doctor I have ever met in my LIFE!

In many ways Dr Arano is an old fashioned Dr. He has insight that can only come with years of experience. Diagnosis and treatment are right on.

This was an easy transition of care from my Los Angeles doctor of twenty years. I am very pleased with my continued treatment, RX refills and referrals. Dr. Arano has a great support staff too. I highly recommend.

I've gotten used to bad physician experiences in my town due to our rural location, but I was really surprised by how much I like Dr. Arano and his staff. There is good camaraderie in the office, the staff members are kind and personable, and the Dr. himself is low-key, self-effacing, knows his stuff, and provides needed referrals without stress. I am just as happy with Dr. Arano as I've ever been with any big-city GP.

I would completely avoid Dr Arano. His practice is extremely unprofessional; I do not know if they are dishonest or incompetent, but the result is the same. They show no respect or consideration for clients, best displayed by their telling me they did not accept Blue Cross/Blue shield less than twenty four hours before my appointment. This was an appointment I had made three months in advance (when they confirmed they take Blue Cross/Blue Shield). Do not waste your time with this doctor.
