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.

He is not a Neuro for M.S.
I saw him maybe 3 times. The 1st 2 sitting in my wheelchair he took a hammer out and knocked my knees to see if they kicked out. Right leg not so much. Then he had me close my eyes and touch my nose. Yea I missed the left side but both the knee knocker and nose test I didn't do well but he said I did. Hubby could see I didn't. I have had M.S. for over 30 yrs. I have advanced to Secondary Progressive M.S. I am sure he knew that, and who knows if it's not worse now since there are no M.S. Neuro's left here. I cannot travel. I gave him 2 stars because he's a nice guy. The 2nd time I saw him he asked 'who are you?' Me & Hubby couldn't beieve it. 3rd time I saw him he told me there was nothing he cold do for me. Said to have my Primary take care of me. She was just new at the time also. She is awesome but so good it's hard to get an appt with her. Won't tell you her name!!!

Not sure if diagnosis is correct
Just not convinced his diagnosis is correct. He put a lot of faith in another drs opinion without checking things himself. Some tests were done but I never was contacted. I called but kept getting put on hold so long it goes back to the main menu. I feel disappointed and unimportant.
