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 worst yet....
Cold uncaring arrogant conceited I could tell every second he was in the room with me he wanted to be anywhere else but here he flat out refused to do anything on his own unless it was my last resort then he'd do it and I would probably die not the kind of doctor we need not the kind of doctor anybody needs he asked questions and then railroad you not letting you answer them just a horrible person.

The worst doctor ever
I went for a referral visit. He was extremely late. Rude, uncaring, cold and rushed the visit. He seemed annoyed that he had to see me. I would not recommend his service. It is worth the drive to another facility to avoid him.

A true definition of an outstanding doctor
Dr Moore displayed compassion and took the time to do a thorough exam. He answered all my questions and concerns. I feel he went out of his way to speak to my family and personally phoned me the night before my surgery. A+ rating!

For years I have had back problems. I had pain and tingling and pain in both legs and could not stand 2 minutes without sitting down due to the sharp pain in both legs. I visited with Dr. Moore at the University of Missouri Orthopedic center and he said he felt he could use an anterior approach to fix my back completely. The resulting surgery was done shortly thereafter. When I was still in the recovery room, I noticed I could not feel any pain. I was totally back to normal within two months. IT WAS GREAT. Dr. Moore did an outstanding job on my back. I could not even imagine feeling so good. I praise God, that he gave Dr. Moore the talent and knowledge that would allow him to fix my back.
