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.

The staff were very welcoming. Doctor Hew was respectful and listened to my questions in which he gave me knowledge feedback on my diagnosis.

Excellent doctor
I went to a CityMD with my son who had gotten injured during volleyball practice. I noticed immediately that Dr. Hew treated the staff with consideration and respect. I was also most impressed with his evaluation of my son's knee. The doctor was knowledgable, thorough, and attentive to all of our questions. It was by far the best urgent care experience I have ever had, and I could not have been more impressed with Dr. Hew.

No bed side manner at all! Was rude, unprofessional. Made racial/ethnicity comments and I reported him. City MD needs to check who they’re hiring to practice for them.

Went to City MD because I had a knot on my arm and wanted to make sure it wasn't a blood clot. He had the medical assistant look on the internet for something called erythema nodosum and prescribed steroid 4 pack. I had an appt with my neurologist the next day and he told me Dr. Hew was wrong. It was obviously a cyst. I looked up on the internet also and came to the same conclusion as my neurologist. He obviously doesn't know medicine and I had to pay$50 for NOTHING!
