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. Wishingrad is a caring, thorough, excellent physician. So lucky to have him. Took lots of time and explained everything.

Dr. Wishingrad is very caring. We have been so very happy with his treatment of my son who has ulcerative colitis. He is compassionate, answers emails immediately, and seems to take a personal interest in my son's wellbeing. His Physician Assistant Amy is also excellent.
