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.

I have been a patient of Dr. Castillo for 10 years. He is a trusted advisor and my wife and I enjoy our visits with him. He is highly recommended.

He went above and beyond to listen to my issues and was able to resolve my problem with professionalism and ethics! He practically save my life by referring me to my surgeon who will be able to do multiple procedures in the same day, which means it saves my life from having multiple surgeries ????
