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.

I have been being treated by Dr. Malaty for more than ten years and have always found her to be compassionate, concerned, highly knowledge and always willing to take the time needed to answer all of my questions, never rushing me. She is an outstanding Doctor!

Avoid this doctor
She was judgmental and did not provide a fresh evaluation. Instead she made thing look like she completed proper evaluations when in fact she used old information. She regurgitates what other doctors say or think. Worst of all her bedside manner was cold and rude.

Accompanied my husband on a visit. As a rheumatoid arthritis patient myself, I have met a lot of doctors. Dr. Malaty was by far the most extraordinary doctor we have ever seen. Not aloof, wonderful listener, great sense of humor and tremendous knowledge of Parkinson's disorders. He is in the very best of hands.

Dr Malaty is the very, very best at hearing concern and addressing them. She takes care of what you need and truly listens to what you have to say-never rushing you. Warm, with a sense of humor and a supurb diagnostician, I totally trust her and drive a distance to be under her care.
