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.

He was very rough with my infant. She was bright red as he was holding her down. She continued to cry all the way home and for half an hour because she was frightened

Poor listener. Does not take what you say into account most of the time. Spends most of the visit conversing with his self and computer. I reported a serious side affect from a medication that he continues to "push"/recommend we put our child on! Please find another pediatrician!!
