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.

We were scheduled to have port surgery for my son at Children's Hospital and they contract with PSA. On Friday afternoon they contacted me to voice concerns over my son's surgery. They had a whole month to voice concerns and waited until Friday with a surgery scheduled for Wednesday. They were unwilling to have an emergency appointment, discuss the issues, and have ignored portal emails from our family. I am disappointed in Dr. Short and his staff in the sloppy way this was handled and how our family was ignored.

Dr Short was my sons surgeon for an emergency appendectomy this week. In an urgent and a bit surreal situation, he was calm, professional, friendly, made sure all of our questions were answered before and after, and just great bedside manner to both the patient and parent! I was very thankful it was him on duty ! Everything went smooth and well in the surgery. I would highly recommend him based off our experience!

Our newborn wasn't even a month old when we found out she had pyloric stenosis. I had never even heard of that before. The pediatric team at Children's hospital was so overwhelmingly wonderful every step of the way. The entire team from the nurses that got us our room to the anesthesiologist and the surgeon Dr. Short himself was very knowledgeable and understanding. Everyone there at Children's was supportive and I had complete confidence our baby was in good hands. A very caring staff.
