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.

This doctor ignored my primary concern about my long-standing back problems and never really asked me anything about my subjective experience of pain. He assumes he know what you need without any kind of thorough assessment.

This was by far the worst doctor I have ever seen, and that's really saying something considering there's no shortage of terrible doctors at Kaiser. When he walked into the exam room to see me for the first time as a new patient, he didn't even introduce himself. He didn't address all of my medical concerns, called my painful cyst a "cosmetic" issue, not covered by insurance, and I had to REQUEST labs and a prescription for an important issue he didn't even bother addressing.

This guy is a tool. Would definitely stay away. Cares more about the book than the patient.
