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.

Loved him!
He did my spinal fusion in 2021 and nearly got my whole back to 0°. As someone with an anxiety disorder I found him to be a very nice guy and really easy to talk to. After being told I would get 2 refills of my medicine the pharmacy refused. I was in so much pain so my mom messaged Dr Tager and he was able to get me that refill I desperately needed.

He is amazing
Dr. Tager is an amazing doctor. He did scoliosis surgery on my daughter and did a wonderful job. He communicates all the information in ways that’s easy to understand and makes sure parents are kept informed every step of the way. He truly cares for all his patients and will go above and beyond for each one.
