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.

Great experience!
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Murray when he treated my emergency appendectomy. He made me feel calm in a stressful situation. When it turned out to be a bit more complicated, he called and explained my pathology results in a clear way. Dr. Murray clearly cares a lot about his patients! I would highly recommend him.

I had my first visit on 8/31/2023- I had a list of questions on Hernia prepared by looking at the websites. He listened to me and answered in a friendly manner. Inguinal Hernia Repair was done on 9/8/2023. Postoperative follow-up was done after one week. Waited for four months. No side effects at all. With my experience, I recommend this Surgeon is the best for Hernia repairs.

Absolutely, 1,000 %.
Dr. Murray & his colleague Dr. Desa are extremely knowledgeable & gifted with their exceptional surgical expertise. Before going into the operating room, I was comforted & the surgery was explained which eased my mind. Above all, they are both kind & patient. Because of there exceptional medical skills & knowledge in an urgent medical emergency, I’m grateful to be healing & alive. I deeply thank them both from my heart.

If you need a surgeon that you can put your full trust in, one who is caring, takes a real interest in his patients, and even has a sense of humor. THIS IS YOUR SURGEON. I just had an Inguinal Hernia Repair and if I were to rate the entire experience on a scale of 1 - 10, Dr. Murray gets an 11. His entire team in surgery was exemplary.
