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.

A Doctor Who Truly Cares
Dr Ashley has shown a level of compassion, empathy and dedication. I felt reassured and cared for. He takes the time to go over my test results, answer all my questions in a way I could understand. His calm and positive demeanor helped calm my fears. I am deeply thankful to have Dr Ashley taking care of my post breast cancer care.

I'm in the middle of treatment with Dr. Ashley. He did my double mastectomy. I'd give 5 stars to Dr. Ashley along with his support staff. His breast care coordinator, Paula, was easy to reach and work with. When things go wrong is when you see how everyone functions. I had my surgery in the midst of an oxycodone-acetaminophen shortage. My prescription could not be filled anywhere in the dose prescribed. There were complications with another drug and Nurse Lynne worked all afternoon to get my prescription resolved with several phone call to me. In conclusion, I don't understand the negative reviews with the office staff. That has not been my experience.

You’re only as good as your support staff. All the negative reviews regarding the front and back office is true! I’d run as fast as you can! Good luck trying to get a call back or anyone answer the phones. When they do call back, Lynne Moss first threatened me verbally on the phone and then followed by threatening me in email. His staff is a bad reflection of what kind of Doctor he is. I would never let myself or anyone known or unknown allow him to perform surgery if this is the kind of treatment towards his patients!

I’ve had two breast cancer surgeries by Dr Ashley. His bedside manner is wonderful. He is very kind & compassionate. Am possibly in need of another surgery & wouldn’t want anyone else performing the surgery!!

The ER physician told us Dr. Ashley was the best and from all I can see he is. My father had a burst colon from and infection we are told and he was dying. Dr. Ashley compassionately explaimed the situation and have us choices. Naturally we chose to go ahead. Dr. Ashley skill saved our father. He was there everyday and gave us hope. It still looks like a long road for us be we are so grateful for this mans skill and care. Frieda Jackson

Dr Ashley is a good doctor, but his support staff is not good. They do not return phone calls in a timely fashion if at all. It is difficult to get a live voice for a question and they do not follow through on sending reports without multiple calls...frustrating.

I had three surgeries to implant a peritoneal catheter. The first two did not work. I was more or less dumped on Dr Ashley by the surgeon, who is in this group, who did the first 2 unsuccessful surgeries. Dr. Ashley made a huge effort, picked up the pieces, corrected the surgery and it's been smooth sailing ever since. I am VERY UNHAPPY with the first surgeon and his attitude. I am beyond grateful for for Dr. Ashley! Thank you, Dr.Ashley!

He didn't address a concern I was having with regards to an unexpected side effect of the surgery (which was never mentioned as one of the possibilities) with a straight answer. Then he and his office staff ignored my communications when I informed them the problem still persists. They said i had to make an appointment, refused to tell me how much it would cost, refused to acknowledge that there's a problem and that I'd already gone in for it. Horrible office staff.
