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.

Best Family Doctor
Dr Peterson is a super kind and caring doctor and top of his field. He is the doctor for my wife and I and our 5 kids. I could not see trusting them with anyone else! He truly is top of his field and with him we know we are in good hands. We have seen him many times quickly catch things that were overlooked by others. I give him 5 stars only because there is no 10!

Performed optional tests that I did not request. Did not explain confusing test results. Made alarming claim based on one LDL Direct test and recommended statins with no mention lifestyle changes first. Tried to charge for admin fee for shingles vaccine which is not paid by insurance. Billed for tests and services which not justified even though payable by insurance.
