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.

He sees both me and my wife. He bends over backwards to get us any care we need. He explains everything and he's very understanding. I cannot recommended him enough

Unbelievably rude, arrogant and unprofessional. He is "CEO" of the clinic where he practices and apparently answers to no one for his gross negligence of patient welfare.

My experience with Dr. McCarthy was always personable and thorough. He showed genuine concern. It wasn't very often when I had to ask him anything because he explained things to me in layman's terms. He is an amazing person and I highly recommend him.
