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 Murfin is hands down the best doctor I have ever met and nothing I can say really does justice to the man: he is extremely intelligent, efficient, as well as a compassionate and a truly outstanding surgeon. My husband has been a patient of him for more than 20 years. Dr. Murfin's proactive approach to colorectal screening followed by an immediate surgery, saved my husband's life. He even drew pictures so me, the stressed-out nervous Nelly, could understand the procedure and recovery process. Also, his office staff bent over backward to help us with FMLA forms and even wrote a letter for my travel insurance provider. I strongly recommend Dr. Murfin's practice to anyone that is putting off the dreaded colonoscopy for too long. You cannot be in better hands
