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 first saw Dr. Busch back in 1995. Dr. Busch performed arthroscopic surgeries on my left elbow and ankle (2x) and I credit him with the function of said joints to this day. I trust Dr. Busch more than any other doctor I have ever visited. He is a straight shooter with the right amount of ego to perform only whats necessary to repair the joint. His ability and pride kept him from filleting my ankle (as other docs wanted to). Whatever he recommends is likely best.
