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.

Seek care elsewhere
I would not recommend this doctor. I felt disrespected, and do not trust his care or evaluation. He was rude, and wrote incorrect statements about my condition in his notes.

I would highly recommend Dr. Arnold. He was attentive, he took his time, he was friendly, and his staff were really great. He helped me find a specialist for one of my concerns. The staff sent me a follow up letter that I really appreciated.

What an inadequate doctor. Cold, disinterested attitude and poor communication skills. One of the worst, most traumatic appointments I've ever had with a physician; I actually felt scarred by my encounter with him. This man had nothing to offer me. He appeared emotionally impoverished and intellectually inferior to other doctors I've encountered. I recommend that patients look elsewhere for a doctor with some compassion and brains. Why do people like Arnold even bother going into medicine?

Not the best experiences. Our first impression was that he was very nice and personable, but would not recommend him as a family physician. He was not great with my son who is on the autism spectrum. He seemed out of his comfort zone in dealing with our basic concerns.

Great bedside manors, very caring and not afraid to consults with fellow doctors. Always makes you feel that you are very important to him and the clinic.
