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.

Did not seem to be involved to answer questions on my son's neck pain. Seemed disinterested is another way of putting it. Son was injured at age 5 from a unsupervised bad 'throw' from an older child and now had neck issues.

I originally began going to Dr. Portner about my back issues. However he has helped me with so much more. He introduced me to a health plan that will help my back pain more than anything. Since taking on his health program recommended to me I have lost 50lbs and counting. I am over the moon with my results with my back pain lessened and my new found quality of health.

About Me

care philosophy

Every single case deserves equal respect, compassion and dedicated effort, and making pain disappear is the best reward. Nothing pleases us more than discharging our patients from the clinic pain-free and getting them back to enjoying their normal activities.
