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.

First visit was good. On time, friendly and helpful.

After my second visit, I left his office with More Anxiety and Stress than when I went in. He is Very Negative and prescribes treatments that are very radical and if you don't agree with him he throws a childish fit and threatens to cut you off. I saved him the trouble; I will Never go back to him, Never recommend him and I feel that he should retire before he tries to ruin anyone else's process to a healthy mind and life.
