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 Adams is a wonderful doctor! He’s treated my skin cancers. I always feel he cares and spends the time with me to explain my pathology report word for word. I have PTSD and anxiety and going to the doc is difficult for me, but he always welcomes me and I feel safe putting my life in his hands. Couldn’t find a better Dermatologist!! He’s awesome

This Dr has a rules 1. Don't be late no more than 3x 2. Don't go to him if you have an unusual case he's not capable of handling the over load of to many patients 3. His staff is friendly at first and then after awhile they kinda throw you to the side like trash 4. If he tells you that you have a spot that needs to be observed think twice get 2 opinion 5.He's al the way out in the middle of no where so he can get away with a lot and since Diginty took over his practices went downhill

Dr Adams is more than just a Dr. He was a friend! My name is JR and I miss him . My condition he was helping me with has progressed because I had to relocate but he's the best Doctor and friend I've had. I hope to one day get back to Redbluff to have him as a doctor again

I have had 4 melanomas and have seen several dermatologists since 2010. Dr Adams and his staff are the most caring and always go the extra mile. I literally have put my life in their hands. If that doesn't rate 5 stars, what can I say?
