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.

Went to Dr. Herndon for a 2nd opinion, after an awful experience at Boston Medical Center. He was wonderful! Thorough, patient, and took all the time needed to explain and try to diagnose my issues. He set me up with an occupational therapist, and had a custom brace made for me. After only a couple of days I am already seeing improvements.
