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.

The best
Dr. Carlson is the best doctor I’ve ever had. Kind, compassionate, informative. Answers all my questions, no matter how stupid they are. Gives me options in treatment. Just wonderful.

He canceled my appointment twice, both times having to reschedule 3 weeks out. The first time was canceled 2 days before, after I had already waited a month... 2 months of wasted time.

Dr. Carlson is thoughtful, intelligent and kind. He always takes the time to help me understand everything that is going on and honestly listens to what I share with him...this seems to bean uncommon trait among physicians these days.

Dr. Carlson asks all the right questions and answers all of mine. He pays attention and give options to me. Lucky for me, I'm an active, healthy person. Because that is generally the case, I rarely go to the doctor's office. But, just in case that goes sideways, I'm happy to have Dr. Carlson helping me.
