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.

Completely impressed!
Dr Carty is a wonderful physician. Of course, he's knowledgeable but the big thing is that he takes time to listen and takes immediate action. He's also alert what might be going on with me by our conversation. Then he asks the appropriate questions to further treat me. Plus, he wears beautiful neckties that his talented wife hand paints.

Dr. Carty throughout the years has aptly demonstrated that he's an extraordinary medical diagnostician, he's extremely personable with a very winsome droll personality, patient-oriented, compassionae, & as he listen's intently he always responds thoroughly & promptly professionally to whatever medical issues that I might incur. In addition he's supported by a very genteel & competent staff too. Jutta Harden San Diego, CA

Although Dr. Carty has a very full practice and can sometimes run late for scheduled appointment, every time I've seen him over the last 4 years, he has been completely present listening to my problems. He is a very competent clinician and has treated me with respect and taken my issues seriously.

I am very unhappy with how I have treaded by the office of Dr. Carty There is too much to write and it probably would not change anything becouse I called to upper management of Arch, and try to file a complaint on 5/5/16. I was promised that I will get a call back next day the latest and so far no reply at all. Very poor communication from the office and honestly I would not recommend the Arch way of servicing patients to anyone.
