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.

Doesn't listen or address complaints
I am getting a new doctor. She never addresses my complaint with any seriousness. Just gives an overall, "I dont care" vybe. She knows nothing about me or my family history. Has no waiting room, makes you stand outside. Worst, I just don't feel she cares. Won't listen or even entertain any possible suggestions. Am given advice like "Keep doing what your doing", "Take heavy doses of OTC drugs it helps" (Said nobody ever). I am an no way seeking any narcotics, I made that clear, as did she that she won't give them. She wont hear mental health issues either. I have extensive medical knowledge of my own, and she is very antiquated in her thinking and clearly has limited knowledge of pharmaceuticals, what's dangerous and what is not anymore. I wonder when the last time was she read anything from the turn of the century. Name anyone who wants to hear "Take OTC pain relievers" from your doctor. If that worked, I wouldn't even be there.
