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.

Very knowledgeable and helpful I always go in with tons of questions. Been using him for 7 years.

I would recommend Dr. Rau to anyone. He is a great doctor! When he first joined Dr. St. Martin I though goodness he is so young. Don't let that fool you he is awesome! He treated me for a really bad case of double pneumonia (him and St. Martin) They are just fantastic. I cannot say enough about Dr. Rau. He remembers everything. I just love him....he is so down to earth! THEY MAKE A GREAT TEAM!!!!!!
