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.

Caring
Dr. Greene actually listens to your concerns. He’s a dr. With a heart that cares.

Dr Greene took the time to review the results of my CT scan before coming into the exam room.He listened to my description of the problem I was having and explained that the CT scan agreed. He was very specific about the medicine he wished me to take and set up a follow-up; with the instructions to call if things did not improve or if I had further questions.
