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. Hobson performed my regular colonoscopy during the pandemic. I especially appreciated her warm, kind, and caring manner during stressful times. The procedure seemed smooth and efficient. I plan to return to her for future colonoscopies. So glad I found her.

Awesome! I had what I was told were hemeroids for the last >10 years. Dr. Hobson treated me in a very logical, understandable, way and I was pain free, no more creams, in a week. I passed the info off to my father who had been suffering from what he was told were hemeroids for the last 40 years, he was pain free in a week. The pain has been gone for over a year. Dr. Hobson literally kicks butt.
