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. Derivaux gave me plenty of time to ask any questions that I had and spent a lot of time explaining the plan of care. I felt very comfortable and very confident to put myself in his care.

Excellent surgeon, he performed a upper right Lobectomy walked out of hospital two days later. Could have the next day but I stayed on my own accord as a precaution because the day after surgery I was hurting so bad. It's 17 day after and I feel great considering I had a third of my lung removed. Would recommend him highly to anyone needing a Thoracic surgeon.
