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.

Amazing doctor
He was very patient and caring. He made our son feel very comfortable talking to him (which is a challenge for my son usually) . Was able to figure out the problem and feel very pleased. He is an outstanding doctor.

Too prideful to consider the correct diagnosis
My daughter and I had a bad experience with him at OLOL Children's ER. I am giving him 2 stars because he has a likeable personality and is pleasant to interact with. However, he did not listen to what we were telling him. He made up his mind about what he thought was wrong and misdiagnosed my daughter. He was prideful and would not back off of his diagnosis despite our questions, concerns, and evidence that pointed to the obvious diagnosis. He disregarded our concerns and discounted what we were telling him. As a mother of a child in pain, there are few things more infuriating. We had to go right back to the ER as the pain continued to get worse. Thankfully we had a different doctor that listened and got the diagnosis correct right away (which is what we had been saying was the issue all along).
