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.

He is very uncaring & cold
All this doctor did was tell me how difficult it would be for me to see the specialists I need to see because I'm on Medicaid. He didn't do an exam, address the infection I currently have & the referral he provided wasn't even valid. I question his training as a an internal medicine & infectious disease specialist because he thought it would be ok for me to take prednisone when I'm already taking biologics & I've been told by rheumatologists that prednisone would put me at an even greater risk for a COVID infection. He also told me I could take Ciprofloxacin even after I informed him I almost died from C. Diff that was caused by taking Ciprofloxaxin. He knows I have severe anxiety & all he wanted to do was put me on prednisone which aggravates anxiety! Also, I explained that I've taken a lot of prednisone throughout my life, it has a cumulative effect & the long term effects of prednisone are worse than the autoimmune disease I already have. I really don't trust his judgment!
