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.

Dr. Chow was so kind and the whole process was quick and easy.

Just has my colonoscopy yesterday. Dr. Chow and staff are great; professional, pleasant and caring. This is my second colonoscopy by Dr. Chow; he always comes out and talks to you before and after to see how your doing. I would highly recommend him to my friends and family.

Although many in our community like Dr Chow, my experience was not so good. I am sure he is a nice man. I was awake during procedure and could feel the procedure for much of the time. I could not eat for 3 days following my procedure due to him cutting the inside of my throat, just below back side of mouth, because I was moving because I could feel the pain and not sedated enough. I still have problems with that area of my throat today. Some of my friends swear by him... me- not so much.
