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 Purcell is one of a kind. He truly cares about his patients and caregivers alike. He is never rushed, always understanding, very knowledgeable and professional. He tunes into each patient/caregivers like you are the only ones in the entire building. It's very obvious how much he cares and is passionate about what he does. Cancer journeys are awful and we are thankful to have him on this journey with us

Dr Purcell was the second oncologist I saw when I was first diagnosed with cancer and he was in Billings, Mt. I walked into his office terrified and he did everything in his power to make sure that I left that first apt knowing he would do everything in his power to make sure i made it through what was coming. I must deal with doctors monthly due to other medical issues that I did not have at the time I was first diagnosed but I have never dealt with a more compassionate caring doctor.
