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.

AMAZING DOCTOR
Dr. Hendricks is an amazing doctor and surgeon. He was referred to me by a specialist to have gallbladder surgery. He was so attentive, compassionate and informative in the pre-surgery appointment and at the hospital. He has an amazing bedside manner. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dr. Hendricks. His staff also impressed me greatly, so professional and yet warm friendly demeanor.

Dr Hendricks is THE WORST! He performed what he called a “Perianal Abscess EXcision” on me, which I later found out from 2 different Colorectal Surgeons is not a real surgery. What he actually did was remove the external portion of my anal fistula, while leaving the internal portion intact. This caused me to needlessly suffer for 9 weeks after surgery, while he dismissed me at every post op appointment & told me that I was healing, & I would be fine, even though I was sitting in his office crying telling him about the pain & discharge I was having. Because of what he did to me I needed to have 2 more surgeries to correct what he did to me, & missed 4 months of work!! He is friendly sure, but INCOMPETENT. & will dismiss your concerns rather than take accountability. DO NOT TRUST HIM WITH YOUR HEALTH. I am forever traumatized.

Dr. Hendricks is a very talented surgeon and wound care physician. I am grateful that he was frank with me about the serious infection in my leg and foot. Dr. Hendricks was able to save my foot, and possibly my leg, from complete amputation. In my opinion Dr. Hendricks’ skills, knowledge, communications and patient care are on par or better than physicians in large medical centers!

He may be a very capable surgeon but he was very rude and irate and we did not go through with the surgery because of it. Upset my wife and refused to do the surgery because of her asking simple questions said she was no cooperating. He make the rules I guess and not cooperate is set at the top of the bar with having simple concerns.
