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.

Went from a bmi of 42 to 24 in less than 1 year which was because of my hard work but it was Dr. Gellman who encouraged me to have a gastric sleeve it after only going to him for a consultation foe a huge hiatal hernia. He and his staff were supportive and caring. I came thru the surgery with flying colours and no complications and today I have no reflux and am fit and healthy. Thank you.
