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.

The best. EXTREMELY pleased with his knowledge of pulmonary medicine and his communication style.

I just had my first appointment, arrived early, and sat for over an hour before I got up and went back to work. The woman sitting next to me heard me give my appt time when I came in and she told me "I have the same appointment time with Dr Daniel as you do"...how ridiculous to schedule two people at the same time. I will not be going back to him, I'm sure I can find another doctor as qualified whose staff knows how to schedule a bit better. Too bad, too, because he seems to have some great reviews.

I have had two appointments with Dr. Daniel. Both times I was seen an HOUR after my scheduled appointment time. I was then only seen for five minutes and never had any information forwarded to me about my sleep studies. I have also requested to receive copies of my lab results and have yet to get anything from them. Just overall an unprofessional staff and doctor seems to not care about his patients time and health.

Dr. Daniels is a very caring, attentive specialist whom I was referred to once my COPD became worse. I have been extremely pleased with him as a physician and with the care and recommendations he provides. He listens very closely to patient input. I have Medicare & a Part D Drug Plan, and he is very supportive in working with me to find the drugs that are both beneficial to me but also work with my current insurance plans.

Our first visit found a very polite and respectful Doctor with a big smile! The most important quality? He really listens and my 92 year old husband had some things to say! Dr. Daniel patiently answered questions, gave clear instructions and information. He was very upbeat and when we mentioned actions we took, he agreed with most of them and often suggested even more we could do to be comfortable. I would absolutely recommend him.

Dr. Daniel was very present and engaging in coversation and answering questions. He informed us on many things before i even got to ask the questions which as nice for once to not walk out of a appointment and then remember the questions. He would be the primary Dr if he wasn't a specialist.
