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.

Dr. Cooke treated my daughter and me terribly when we sought treatment for her running related stress fractures. He was rude and failed to listen to the patient or me. His advice when asked if he could help determine the cause for her two stress fractures was to advise her to quit running. Luckily we got a second opinion and with the easy remedy of breaking up scar tissue, she went on to a full college running scholarship and 2:53 marathon. He was a nasty person with no interest in her.
