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.

Dismissive
He had decided what was wrong with my mother before he entered her hospital room. He did not listen to her or my concerns. He attempted a procedure without any anesthetic. He showed no respect or compassion.

For one full year he told my brother he needed hip replacement. After a year, a second opinion... The new Dr. took one look at the x-rays and told my brother he had multiple myeloma. A whole year he could have been receiving treatment was lost because this Dr. Vallem was more eager to do a hip replacement than he was to make an accurate diagnosis. I would recommend people see a Dr. who knows what he's looking at. His negligence cost my brother his life.

Refused to address my pain issue from a bad fracture to my leg. He really didn’t care how much pain I had. I don’t recommend this Dr. I had a very bad experience with him

I came to this orthopedic group due to a sever wrist fracture. Best experience I've ever had with a medical group. They promptly scheduled all my appointments at the time requested. All personal seen were exceptional. Dr. Vallem made me feel like I was his first priority. Highly recommended.
