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.

Thankfully this loon has retired.
Worst and most unprofessional doctor I have ever suffered. Hothead. Shouted every visit over imagined slights. Thankfully this man is retired. Now I can feel free to speak. I heard him shouting at other patients. I bumped into an old friend who had the same experience. The rest of the staff was well aware of his issues and I recommend they take down this review site because it makes everyone else susceptible to guilt by association, although the rest of the staff were highly professional.

After scheduling an appt. for one problem, another problem developed and I thought of a question about a third item (needing simple answer). The doctor chastized me for having too many problems for one appt. and said I should have told the scheduler so they could have planned more time....then he refused to discuss items 2 and 3!!! WORSE, he missed a major diagnosis, and told me it was in my head. Another doctor examined me and saw the problem immediately and sent me to a surgeon immediately!
