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 Michael is a dangerous Dr. His discrimination of my situation caused me to be discriminated by most Drs for five years since. Having to prove myself to each and every Dr since I met him that day in the ER. He mixed up info from my file and someone else's I can only imagine. Where he denied medical history dating back 9 years before and 5 years after. Defamation of Character.

Dr. Christopher diagnosed my 15 month old son with Type 1 diabetes. He caught what other doctors had understandably missed. That day was November 17, 2002 - a Sunday. Someone of Dr. Christopher's seniority normally didn't work Sundays, but by the Grace of God he was there that day. Because of his God given talents, Dr. C figured out what was wrong with my son. I remember him saying that he didn't know what was wrong with our son, but he wasn't going to discharge until he knew for sure. Amazing.
