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. Mains is the kindest doctor I have ever visited! He listened to my concerns and helped me when I felt terrible and didn’t know what to do.

I have always found Dr. Mains listening to me and my concerns and worries. He is knowledgable and thorough and friendly at the same time. I would always recommend him to others looking for a medical relationship with a physician.

Dr. Mains is amazing. I have been his patient for 18 years. While I no longer work downtown, going to his office is not convenient, I refuse to find another doctor. He is one in a million. When he is away, his other colleagues fill in for him perfectly. His nurse assistant, Debra, is a gem. She always returns calls, gets messages get to Dr. Mains quickly. I highly recommend Dr. Mains. Service is fast, yet he takes as much time as he necessary to hear your concerns. *****

I went to go to Dr. Mains for several years, until I moved to San Diego 11 years ago. Dr. Mains is the (gold standard) in doctors. In 11 yrs. living here, I've yet to find a doctor like him, who has the qualities he has! If you want a doctor who is: - Caring - Compassionate - Cares about his patients - Kind - Comforting when you feel worried - And an amaziing human being... ...he is your doctor. I love this man, and I'm still searching to find one here, just like him. Highly Recommend!

Male scheduler (C.) Was unprofessional,short unfriendly, ,and lacked concern and listening skills. for an emergent case C. could only offer a 3 month wait for visit!! which was absolutely unacceptable! C. also failed to consider or mention placing me on wait list. All unacceptable since reason for visit was injury and I am prior pt of practice, seeing a physician who left the practice and turned files over to another unavailable physician in this practice. have known of Dr. Mains for 20+
