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.

Gave me injections of cortisone which contained Bupivicaine. This medication is not supposed to be given to patients with high blood pressure and is not supposed to be injected into bloodstream. Dr. Macphail did this to me, causing CNS shutdown, luckily my heart was strong enough to start back up. I was rushed to hospital were I remained for most of the day and was released after my tropnin levels went down. Needless to say I recommended him to retire and will not recommend his services.
