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.

Performed a bilateral PCNL, removing most of the kidney stones, BUT abandoned me during recovery, leaving stents in three weeks during which I begged to have them removed experiencing “10” discomfort/pain, developed a UTI and he failed to remove them during an outpatient session. He had no alternative care plan other than advising me to go to the ER. He is a system employee with no aptitude for patient care.

Had surgery that stitches came undone, and this idiot left it open instead of closing it back up. As a result in suffering.

Some of the worst care (non-care really) that I've received to date. Seemed unaware of latest technologies & refused to order a test I requested (another Dr. recently did, and it worked). The one test they did do on site came up negative, even though it came up positive at a new doctor a few weeks later. He or his resident did absolutely no physical examination. Gave me a seemingly randomly selected antibiotic for a few weeks and told me to come back in three months - long after the treatment ended - whether it worked or not - leaving me with no treatment plan for months. Ordered tests for me at labs that didn't perform the tests (which led to an embarrassing and wasteful lab visit for me). I had to nag his staff by email to get this corrected. Medication (which was useless) was sent to the wrong pharmacy. List goes on. Went here after hearing good things about UF health but it was a huge waste of time and money. Avoid!
