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 pretty condescending in my appointment. Had a “you’re overthinking this” attitude towards me, when I was referred to him by another doctor because I had a fertility issue. I felt uncomfortable about returning so I canceled my follow up, and then he told my pharmacy that I’ve never been a patient of his and canceled my prescription that I needed. His office never even called once.

"Wow, he is awesome!"
Dr. Chapin was one of the best doctors I've ever met. He spent about an hour with me and my husband, going through my history and tests, asking additional questions, and explaining the condition and treatment options. He was very thorough and answered every single question we had. He was very nice and never rushed us or looked impatient or annoyed, even when we asked the same questions again. And he has a great sense of humor! When we left his office, we looked at each other and the first we said was "Wow, he is awesome!". I am so happy it was him who had an available slot when I called PMG Endocrinology for an appointment!

My first 2-3 appointments were a little strained as he and I each were learning to trust the other. After that I've found he is very thorough, caring and willing to listen.

Nice guy, good doctor. Got me what I needed. I saw him near the end of the day and he was obviously a little bit tired, but he still listened to and addressed my concerns.

Makes you wait forever in the room before he sees you. When you ask a question, he brushes you off like you're stupid and he can't be bothered. Acts like you're wasting his time, and you know nothing about your illness because clearly, you are not the Dr.

I have type 2 diabetes. I have been going to Dr Chapin since his office opened. He has listened to what I tell him and we discuss the problem and he tells me what he thinks will help me. I trust what Dr Chapin tell me I need to do. If he thinks what I suggest to him is something that will help me then he will talk to me about it and go from there. I recommend Dr Chapin to anyone with a Diabetes or Thyroid problem.
