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. Castro examined my knee which had a torn ACL (anterior Cruchet Ligament) . His advice was very wrong and 15 years later I have a very crooked and painful right knee. He told me it didn't need to be repaired unless I was a pro athlete. Every doc ive seen since has told me this was not good advice.

Doctor Castro had a bit of a challenge with me: an extraction of two teeth, sinus lift and implants all in the same day. He did all of this while being a very considerate doctor. I would highly recommend anyone to see him!
