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.

Dr Block had me measure all intake/output & log for him. Due to the nature of my work environment this was problematic but I persisted. On follow up visit my medical file had been misplaced and he was not interested in looking at the log - the creation of which caused me permanent problems at work. With no files & no log data the Dr pronounced that I needed surgery for an "appliance" which I refused and have never returned.

Dr. Paul Block is highly intelligent (not necessarily true of all people calling themselves Doctor), as well as witty, and immensely charming. Dr, Block is close to my age, but is as youthful and up-to-date as any doctor I have had in the last decade or more. (Okay he is not as pretty as my pulmonologist, with a lot more wrinkles, but he is still very cute, too!) Dr. Block is the kind of person you would want as a family and personal friend, someone you feel you could trust with your life

Dr. Block took his time to explain what was going on and how it affected me. I was also shown where my problem was on a chart and what needed to be done to fix my problem.
