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.

Patronizing
Don’t bother with him if you are a woman, mother, or housewife. Apparently, “His schedule is CRAZY and if he can go to a gym, I can as well.” By the way, while he did suggest I could take my 3 kids with me to the gym, he did not offer to pay for gym membership
