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.

Personal Care without Rushing
An excellent man and an excellent doctor. Not a group or a mill run by a hospital. It's the doctor and you, and he'll take as much time as you need explaining and consulting with you. Quality medical care we remember from years ago. A doctor you can view as a friend. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else for pulmonary care.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Altus?
I have been a patient of his for years. He always accepts my insurance, front desk always remembers me and are very kind and professional. Waiting time is reasonable, office is always clean from front to rear, Dr. always takes the time to speak with you in his office after every visit and answers all your questions. He even calls other specialists who may require information to treat me. Great bedside manner!
