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.

Horrible doctor
Zero bedside manner, zero professionalism. After my mom made it out of ICU, Awasty gets his feelings hurt that the hospital stopped a med that he prescribed. He wanted her back on it. I asked how to make sure it doesn’t cause the problems it caused in the hospital (why it was stopped). He said only God can assure me. He said that somebody in the hospital put “a bee in my bonnet” that the med is bad and nothing he can say can convince me otherwise. Return a week later because infection is starting again. He won’t prescribe meds because of her blood work in the hospital. The blood work in hospital was bad because of meds. Once med was stopped, blood work was fine and she was released. This little man lets his ego make decisions rather than his medical education and training. I give zero stars.

Worst doctor ever! Just sends you to other specialists and unnecessary tests. Only fills medication for 3 months even if you’ve been on it for years. Treated me horribly!!!
