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.

Dr. Serna has gone above and beyond with my care. I broke my left hip in March 2020 and had to be rushed to the hospital. For five days I was in the hospital. He and his associates gave their utmost attention to me. I also lost a lot of blood during this accident and I know if it wasn't for their quick attention things could have gone from worse to Really bad. Thank You Dr Serna, Thank You!!
