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.

He has treated me for about 4 years. I complain about symthoms and what he basely says is. I'll see you in 6 months. Another time I complain and he gives me more medicine without explaining anything. I look up the medication is for and what symthoms are. That is how I have I find out what the prescription is for. He doesn't explain anything at all. It's terrible I have to find what heart problems I have by looking med up on computer
