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.

The doctor was very explicit about my diagnosis, always concerned that I understood my diagnosis by showing me the images of my MRI. Very good Doctor

He was extremely thorough in his physical examination. He would not address my knee which I am sure is partially tied to my back nerve issue and referred me to an orthopedic, which my CCF GP, who knows me well, had recommended against. My CCF GP had recommended a physiatrist for my knee. I recognize that this was my first visit with this doctor and he did not know that I am an active participant in my health or how active my exercise program has been. I wish more time had been spent trying to get me back to exercising without pain and what exercise movements I could continue with without exacerbating my back or knee. Also, I think an MRI may have been more revealing than an X-ray and if so and it was an insurance issue, I should have been given the option of paying for an MRI out of pocket. This view that patients are financially limited to their insurance is an interesting one. At least the option should have been given.
