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. Rouel he is the best.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Rouel?
Worst medical provider I've ever dealt with. Definitely do NOT go if you have any URGENT medical needs, or want practitioners who care. The office staff are impatient, difficult to understand, rude, and do not seem to care about patient care or wellbeing. If you schedule an appointment, do not be surprised if they meet with you hours later than your appointment or have to reschedule altogether. When you do finally meet with Dr. Rouel, expect to receive subpar care/attention once you've met. I've tried scheduling a handful of in-person appointments with Dr. Rouel as my PCP, and received this type of impersonal treatment on every occasion. I will be looking for better care elsewhere.
