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 Kelly should retire. He’s ornery and rude. He also is stubborn and misdiagnoses. I went to him with pain in my leg - specifically the bone. Because I couldn’t tell him when it specifically happened he said it couldn’t be a fracture and wouldn’t approve an MRI. Instead he gave me a shot for miniscus. When that wore off an hour later I was in pain again. I called and he said there was nothing he could do. I went to another Doctor and immediately was given an MRI and it was 100% fractured.
