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.

Very good experience with Dr Skelton. He identified an area of concern, informed me of the plan of action , made referrals and an appointment for follow up. His identification of the issue was a combination of his examination and asking and most importantly listening to my responses. I'm very grateful for his excellent clinical skills.
