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.

Negative Stars
I drove a 1 hour and 20 minutes for maybe a 10 minute visit. I went for my shoulder and all he cared about was my back. My back nothing to do with the visit. He didn’t ask many questions about my shoulder. He was set and stone on his opinion and no matter what I was telling him or how I felt. He didn’t care. So do NOT go to him. Waste of time and money.
