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.

Amazing
Dr. Espinel did my mom’s gallbladder removal and he was amazing! He took extra time after the surgery to draw up what happened during the surgery. They found cancer in her gallbladder and the same day he got the results he called her to let her know and referred her to an amazing surgeon at Emory to do surgery on the areas that surrounded the gallbladder. It hasn’t even been two weeks and we’ve already met with the surgeon at Emory and have a surgery date. Thank you so much to Dr. Espinel for everything!!!

Dr. Espinel saved my life when I had a colon obstruction where 4 feet of my colon had died off. My labs and vital signs were all normal, but my pain kept increasing. Dr. Espinel listened to me instead of relying on lab reports, and saved my life. He was passionate about the care I was receiving in the hospital and I always felt confident that he was an advocate for me at all times. I will always be thankful for Dr. Espinel!
