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.

One of the Best
Excellent! No complaints at all. He listened to me, he explained so that I could understand what was going on with me. He was thorough, professional, and ordered the medications that should have been given me by another doctor and ER personnel that I had attended. He has been my specialist for many years now and I have no intention going elsewhere.

Condescending doesn’t listen
I had the displeasure of seeing this man. He not only cut me off several times when I was trying to explain to him what was going on but I also heard him talking about me behind the door to a nurse about how “this is going to be a long couple of minutes.” I was referred to him by my primary after they found something in my X-ray. I understand you’ve been a doctor for however many years, but that doesn’t give you the right to treat patients like they’re wasting your time. I feel as though because I’m younger he keeps using that as excuse to make me seem like I’m being hysterical. Of course if I say this, I seem like I’m being the difficult one. Since this guy has such high ratings. But that being said, I won’t be returning so he can breathe a sigh of relief.
