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.

Overall Creep
A strange, condescending man with questionable skills. I can’t imagine why anyone would go to this doctor when there are a plethora of kind, professional, and much more competent providers available in our city. I absolutely do not recommend.

Dr. David is notoriously late to his appointment and when he does meet with you, he's rude, arrogant, and condescending. The staff who works at his office are great, but who wants a doctor that makes them feel worse after meeting with him than they did before going to him??? My advice, find another doctor! I feel like 1-star is too generous for Dr. David.

Dr. David found a way to juice his patients and insurance companies by recertifying his patients every three months instead of 12 months, which the law only requires. Every three months his patients now have to get recertified and ALL he does is ask three silly questions...that's it! How is that treating a patient??? He's a greedy hack of a doctor that does not care about his patients. I do not recommend Dr. David unless of course you like wasting your time and money on an arrogant doctor. I should've read the reviews first and I hope my review will save others the frustration I'm dealing with.

Do not go to this doctor!!! Had been seeing Dr. David for several years, but during my last visit he failed to explain he made changes during my visit, which will now result in me having to pay additional money that isn't necessary to begin with, and his response was "I thought I told you but I see so many people a day that he forgot, sorry." When I disagreed with his position of "I'm sorry" as the only way to resolve the matter, he had the nerve to condesendingly refer to me as "Hey buddy..." when he commented back. What doctor except a hack would ever disrespect their patient like that because they disagree with them...especially when it was their fault??? When I said I was going to report him, he said "to who" and laughed. Find yourself another doctor who for one can keep track of what they're telling or not telling their patients, and one who will at least respect you whether they disagree with you or not. He gets one star because zero stars is not an option!

I have been seeing Dr. David at his Bellevue office for over 10 years now. He has an amazing staff. The front office girls go above and beyond to make you feel welcomed and that you have everything you need. I have witnessed the girls making appointments for patients that have language barriers and they really take their time with all patients to make sure that they understand. This office is very busy and yes they do run behind on occasion, but this is to be expected at any doctors office. I ha

Great Doctor! I'm usually in and out in a half hour! Dr. David is very knowledgeable, he explains procedures and medication better than any other doctor I have ever went to! Very down to earth, understanding, and overall amazing doctor! I would highly recommend!

I made an appointment to discuss some pain I was having. I was seen by a PA who only suggested taking Ibuprofen for the discomfort. I scheduled a second appointment to be seen by Dr David.I waited in the exam room for two hours before he came in to see me. He talked to me for a total of ten minutes, and ordered a urine test. I never got a call about the results. When I called to ask for the results they took 2 days to call me back. I have given up on this incompetent practice.
