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.

My son was getting sick often. He was hitting his head off the wall and crying frequently. He was also not meeting developmental milestones. In an appointment with Dr. Best, he told me that my son couldn’t hit his head hard enough to have a concussion, and that he wouldn’t recommended or refer us for an evaluation for developmental therapy. As we left the room he said “Thanks for funding my kids’ college tuition.” We never went back. Also FYI you do NOT need a doctor’s referral for an evaluation for developmental therapy! You can call your local CFC office to request an evaluation. We started seeing Dr. Hill through Morris Healthcare and she is professional and listens to parents’ concerns. My advice is to see her instead!

I don't know who gave him a 1 star review but that's absurd. He is great with the kids. I have a son and daughter and is great with both of them. He cares about the children he's helping, I'll never take my kids somewhere else

Dr. Best has always been phenomenal with my son. I'm a first time mom and I used to bring my child in every time he got sick. Dr. Best never treated me like I was an overreacting mother. Always listens and gives the best help possible. He is one person I truly trust with my son's care.
