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.

Dr.Numata was an excellent communicator and listener. I felt much relieved after his great explanation and what to expect in the healing process and the time it would take. He really is a great doctor in knowledge, and the easy illustrations he uses to explain things were great. He is very kind and personable as well. I left feeling confident that I received excellent medical help from him.

I appreciate the time Dr. Numata took to evaluate my concerns and explain his findings. He has always been attentive, respectful and supportive. Our family has been patients of his for over 40 years. We will miss him but wish him the best in retirement.
