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.

Not good for medicaid patients
He's very quick with you and hard to get an appointment with. I thought it was amazing that I had a baby and my husband and I had the same insurance but he could get same day appointments that I had to wait weeks for. He seems to not care or be uneducated when it comes to post partum needs. This almost cost my life before switching. I filed a claim for this but never heard back from mercy. Only saw a sign saying he was transferring to a different location.

Didn't listen. Felt rushed. Comes across arrogant and rude. Repeatedly interrupted me while I was sleeping.
