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.

Acute visit/new patient
I would recommend Dr.Gilhool/FPC to anyone looking to switch from their current provider. Mine continually wanted to send me to Urgent Care & they were a UPMC office, could never get me in, Dr. Gilhool’s office got me in next day. The staff were friendly & while there watched Dr. Gilhool help a patient into his car.
