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 really loved this doctor. I had two surgeries and he disappeared in June. Where did you go? No one will tell me!

Waited in a cold room in a gown for about an hour before being seen. After I left there I felt so overwhelmed and still do kind of. He mentioned melanoma more than once but didn’t really explain much. So now it’s a waiting game to get test back. The whole visit was kind of all over the place. The nurses were super nice and caring though.
