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.

I LOVE Dr. Matthews. He vary thorough when explaining Test results as well Dx/Conditions and any other results. I have never had a physician that brings out a medical book & shows me pictures of medical conditions that I have been DX with :) and will explain line by line blood test results & what each test is. I've Worked in the Medical Filed for 16 yr and have never meet a physician like him he is one in a million and I refer him to all my friends and family..

If you value your life please do not go to this health care provider. Dr. Merritt Matthews ineptitude and negligence. Dr. Matthews and his medical staff have compromised my trust on this health care group. Don't trust this health care system! Challenge medical authority and implicit faith on your medical provider.
