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.

RUN FROM THIS DOCTOR OR YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!
I wouldn't let my dog see this doctor! He preformed an abdominal surgery on me and I kept having a lot of pain, turns out it was a lot of scar tissue, I went back to his office several times and he told me there was nothing else he could do for me and told me my PCP needs to refer me to pain management. I told him my PCP doesn't like sending people to a pain clinic and besides pain medication is not going to help with scar tissue pain. I went and got a copy of my doctors notes and I told the girl at the desk I better not receive a bill from this office because I won't pay it! In my opinion he treated me like I was drug seeking just because I had had chronic pain from the surgery he preformed! In my opinion, he's a poor excuse for a surgeon!!! please be weary of this physician, he will do your surgery but if you have any post-op complications you will be own your own!!!

Would not recommend him to anyone, he removed my gall bladder, messed everything up so bad it was over three and a half months before I got to go back home. Had to have another major surgery done in Nashville to fix his mistakes .
