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.

Spends about the right amount 0f time for each appointment. He is very thorough with his questions about my health.

Would not recommend. Now I know why his office looks like a ghost town and he is the only dr there. Will not give needed medication even if you have reports and test showing you have been on medication since 2006. Attitude so/so. If you are in great health he might be ok but if you are on meds or have anything wrong he doesn't seem to care.

I was very disappointed in my appointment with doctor. I was 25 minutes early so I could receive all of my allotted time. I think he spend 7 minutes with very briefly touched a bump on my leg and then rushed out. In these times of high deductibles I really feel like I flushed my money down the toilet and was left wondering if I could get a refund.
