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. Desiena told my father not to worry about the sore on his tongue. Told him it was from his dentures. Told him to put Anbesol on it saw it several times and said it was not concerning. Fit him for
new dentures. My Dad was diagnosed not long after with Stage 4 Dquamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck because by the time he had it checked on his own it had spread. Two surgeries later, part of his tongue and neck removed, Dana Farber for treatment and he is still fighting. Do not go to this man. He should not be practicing. Not once did he check on my dad after finding out that he told him to put Anbesol on his tongue cancer.
