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.

Thanks to the consummate skill and knowledge of Dr McCravey, I am a 16 year survivor of double lung cancer (two different types, one in each lung) that he categorized as "at least stage 3b, if not stage 4" at the time of diagnosis. If you want a doctor who will tell you soothing things and make you feel comfortable, McCravey is not your man. If, however, you want someone to run it down for you, tell you exactly where you stand and, then, work like hell for your survival, there is no one better. I recommend him highly

Dr. McCravey is a good Physician, but he is not very personable, Maybe because oncologist lose a lot of patients. He has a way of not really answering questions if they are not on his agenda for your visit. He is very knowledgeable, but you have to be assertive to get answers.
