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.

The worst, horrible personality. Doesn’t listen.
Dr. Is rude, doesn’t listen, very condescending.

Would not reccomend
Went into office on a pain level of 2, left with pain level of 9. Stated 2x throughout session he was being too rough, he continued with same exam behavior after being told he was causing pain. I would not recommend this individual if you would like to move forward in your recovery.

Horrible, rude, doesn’t care, doesn’t listen and very unprofessional! Speaks to you like you’re an idiot. Had surgery a year ago and still in tremendous pain. He told me to get a gastric bypass and call him back for my next appointment. I went to a different practice for my other knee and the outcome was fantastic. No pain and it’s been only 2 months. Professionalism is the answer. No way would I recommend him to anyone!

37 years of experience has not helped him in any way when it comes to treating patients with respect. He suggested that my pain was fake. Suggested that I leave. Also, at one point when he was testing my right leg's mobility, i explained where the pain was coming from as he moved my leg and his response was " well, there shouldn't be any pain there." There was pain! He should retire at this point. I believe he feels entitled to speak to his patients with causticity. I will never recommend him!!
