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.

I’m almost 56 years old. So have had plenty of experience with doctors. This guy is a complete jerk. He doesn’t listen to the patient. He’s arrogant and certainly doesn’t represent what Mayo Clinic stands for. They should kick him to the curb. Run as fast as you can away from this jerk.

Dismissive, arrogant, acts like he doesn’t have time to listen to your concerns. No desire to look at past history or results of past tests. Talks over you and interrupts as you speak. This was my first time at the Mayo Clinic and I left in tears.

Dr. Smith is arrogant, incompetent and intellectually corrupt. He disregarded and did not answer question on 2 out 4 major neurological test is was given. Don't waste your health time or money on this person. Would give 0 stars if possible.

Run!!!! Should have listened to the previous reviews. Save yourself from frustration and find a different physician. Don’t get caught up in the fact that he is a “Mayo Doctor”. Total waste of time!

I had the same experience as JD in UT. Dr. Smith is the most incompetent and arrogant doctor I have ever visited.
