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.

great care, good man
I had an ongoing wrist problem. I had seen other docs who did not want to operate on it. Dr Bollinger operated, with some precautions, and it came out great! NO problems at all .. much better than I had anticipated. Thanks you Dr Bolllinger. (2006 operation)

Not Interested?
After breaking a finger (in 3 places) on Sunday, July 14th, I was referred by the Healdsburg Hospital ER to reach out to this guy. I did first thing Monday morning. I was greeted with a rude and lecturing staffer who repeatedly cut me off. I was told the doctor was not in til Tuesday to decide how urgent my case was. She had my X-rays and phone number. It’s now Thursday and I’ve heard nothing.

I think Dr Bollinger is one of the best doctors I have ever worked with. He is compassionate, kind and understanding and displayed a lot of empathy for the pain I have been experiencing. He listens well unlike other doctors I have seen. I give Dr Bollinger 5 stars and would recommend him to anyone PamelaSinger

Dr. Bollinger was great in surgical sense. However if he is responsible for office and the way it operates, he gets a o. In my opinion office is operated so poorly it might put a patient at risk..!! If I had of known this beforehand I would not gone there!! Very unhappy with office experience and follow up!!
