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. Duke saved my husband’s life.
Dr. Duke saved my husband’s life by believing his words, “I am having a heart attack!” EKG showed no problem.She alerted the cath lab in Greenville, MS and sent him by ambulance. Dr. Hanns staff was ready. Widow maker was blocked 99%, a stent was put in. If not for Dr. Duke and Dr. Hahn, I would be a widow today. I am very thankful to both doctors!

Dr Duke should not work with live people
She denied me reasonable care based on her personal prejudices. I believe that this doctor needs to work in the morgue and not with patients who are actually alive and need care. She is not only rude but she is mean and I can tell you that if you need medical care you do not want a doctor who is mean at their core as she is.
