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.

If I told you he told me banding my hemorrhoid wouldn't hurt, and he was as good as his word--would you believe me? Couldn't have been a smoother (dare I say pleasant?) experience.

What an amazing doctor. More importantly an amazing human being. Considerate, patient, caring - a true professional. He was so attentive to my mom's every need. Always there to answer any and all questions no matter how many times I asked them. Continuously called to follow up on her well-being. Two weeks post-surgery and still reaching out to see how she's doing. God Bless him.
