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.

Easy to talk to and willing to answer all my questions.

He couldn't even give us an answer as to what my child's conditions 'might be' and left it at that. Months later, she started showing signs of asthma, so we wanted her seen right away. We went to him again hoping for quality care, but he just listened to her chest, looked at her file, prescribed her steroids and called it good. When we tried to go pick it up,The pharmacist said the name of the meds the doc prescribed didn't exist! Crappy, lousy, doctor. Don't go!
