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. Kip and his staff are all excellent people and care about every individual patient.

After the first meeting with Dr. Kip I felt confident that he would be able to help me with my back problems. He took the time to explain all that he thought was wrong with me and what he and his staff were going to do to try and correct it. All the time being very professional and very friendly. I am truly grateful for Dr. Kips help. I told all my friends, family and coworkers if they experience any back problems Dr. Kip is the one see.
