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.

We love Dr. maertens! He is very kind and gentle with our son! Thank GOD for his knowledge of the issues with our son! Appt was at 2:20, we were in the back at 2:15!

Dr Maertens is a good doctor who is skilled, competent and very compassionate. I credit him with helping save my son's life, after a traumatic brain injury.

We love Dr. Paul; he is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to - he has a great personality. He went above and beyond to help my grandson and was the only one that was able to diagnose his rare disorder. We would be lost without him!! I would recommend him to everyone in need!!

Over 2 hour wait with a 4 and 5 year old - I don't usually have a problem taking both children to doctor appointments but don't usually have to wait so long. Dr. Maertens called my 5 year old a liar and told him he wasn't trustworthy because he didn't answer his silly questions the correct way. Thinks he's faking his problem because he doesn't have an answer for what's wrong, though he's had brain surgery and has had this problem on and off for a while. Very upset and disappointed.

2 hour wait with a 4 month is what reduced the amount of stars. I know that he has a tough specialty and things can get backed up, but 2 hours is just excessive...especially with a 4 month old.
