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.

Inattentive
Unresponsive or dismissive of questions and concerns. Actually said (multiple times) that he's 'not sure Long Covid is a thing...' A pulmonologist? Clearly not keeping up on prof development. Incorrectly diagnosed me as asthmatic while dismissing other evidence and symptoms.

I was very disappointed in the quality of the report which I received on my visit as a follow-up to a hospital procedure. He initially wanted to know what I was doing there. Hello
