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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Grindle?
Dr Grindle is a great provider my son had wonderful success with him. However my daughter is currently experiencing an issue but since she is a new patient was told she would have to wait until July?!!! It's the first week of May!! She is 7 years old and is told to wait 2 months just to be seen. I do hope Dr.Grindle is aware that his staff was abrasive and showed no compassion to our family - therefor we will be seeing another provider - DrSawyer who said we should see her tomorrow!
