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.

I had a wonderful time. It was very informative and a very nice person.

Amazing attention to detail!!
Dr. Edem was nothing short of AMAZING! Never have I had a physician that has paid so much attention to detail. He answered every question in detail and allowed me time to process the information he gave me and time to answer questions. I am a southern girl and was worried about not being able to understand him clearly, but I understood perfectly! I left feeling confident with my treatment plan. The staff was very warm and welcoming, Ty in particular was wonderful!
