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.

My sister went to Dr. Monroe with severe pain in her back/hip area. After looking at x-ray and other tests he said the pain is in her back and gave her shots in back many times but they did not help at all. After months of this and no help he told my sister he could not help her and sent her on her way. He didn’t believe in medication for pain ie pain pills and would NOT give her a prescription. He is very condescending when he spoke to her. No bed side manner and disrespectful. My sister showed X-rays and MRI to her primary doctor and chiropractor and the hips are the problem. She is now being scheduled for hip replacement.

Dr. Monroe asks questions, not just about your symptoms, but about You. He is thorough, professional, and easy to talk to. My experience with him made me feel hopeful and heard. I Highly recommend him.

Dr.Monroe has been extremely helpful in managing my pain without opioid pain medications! He’s very intelligent but speaks to the patients level. 10/10!

Dr Monroe and his staff are amazing. They really care about you the patient and listen to your problems. After two years of complete disabilitating pain to the point I told other Doctors to just cut off my leg, Dr Monroe has gotten me almost completely pain free. He gave me my life back and there is no way to thank him enough.
