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.

After meeting Dr. Asante and talking with him, his evaluation diagnosed conditions that have been misdiagnosed and mistreated by one Dr. after another for 30 years. Now that Dr. Asante has evaluated and diagnosed me correctly, I'm FINALLY receiving the appropriate medications. My life has improved. Having names for what has plagued me for decades helps me to know I'm not literally losing my mind and it's not all in my head. I have real and treatable illnesses. Thanks Doc!!
