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.

Entered hospital through ER. Surgery was needed to remove obstruction in small intestine. The 8 inch incision and closing are horrible. Completely unsightly. And it’s 2 1/2 weeks later! Perhaps it was a first year student who did it. ???? Very disappointing.

my 81yo mom came emergency for gallstones/sepsis and he consulted for surgery, did not schedule it for 3 days and she was resp. compromised after he fluid overloaded her! I stopped surgery b/c of this and he said 'She's Medicare anyways, I'm not making any money on this. We will leave her intubated so she can heal". Being a RN I KNEW she would never come off. We tapped her for 600cc that night! I fired him, took her to Summerlin hosp. and thx to THEM she is STILL with me!! My grade: FFF!!!

Dr Kim & I spoke on the phone with my husband in his hospital room. I'm also recuperating from the accident & unable to be with my husband as I am in another state. His condescending attitude was unbelievable. He said he didn't even have to discuss this with me. Such disrespect from a professional DOCTOR/SURGEON is reprehensible. I asked is he would call me after the procedure & he said no only if there is a problem. I asked if a nurse would call to let me know the outcome
