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 seeing Dr. Fitzpatrick for many years for COPD. Everyone in the office, nurses, and doctor have been excellent in their care. I've always been treated with caring consideration and respect. If I have a flare-up, I'm treated immediately with needed mediation phoned into my pharmacy; or appointment. They even took the extra steps to help me get a POC rather than the cumbersome CO2 tanks so I could more easily manage oxygen outside the home. Can't say enough about this doctor and staff. Highly recommended !

Dr. Fitzpatrick helped me survive a massive pulmonary embolism in 2008. I can't recommend him highly enough.
