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.

The best doctor I’ve ever taken my children to. Always communicates well and doesn’t keep you waiting.

If you ever get to him he’s fine. The front desk was rude and condescending (and I’m a physician). Who greets your patients (or potential patients) on the phone is too important to leave to just anyone. We will not return.
