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.

In the beginning, him and I didn't get off on the right foot!! In fact, I didn't like him, for many reasons. Yet, as time went on, Dr. Golden actually ended being my fave Dr.!! He will listen to you and will address any concerns one may have. His staff is beyond caring(love Topaz). I only wish he was up here in coos Bay, then I'd know I'm getting the best possible care from a Dr.!! Thank you Dr. Golden for being a part of my health journey! P.s. I quit smoking 2 years ago!!!
