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 office lied about having enough parking which delayed my appointment just long enough for the doctor to randomly leave the office for an emergency. I drove over an hour for the office to waste my time. Very unprofessional and they didn't want to accommodate me with another doctor. It was bad enough that I had the appointment slots for months, just to not even be seen. Thanks for putting my health at risk and not caring.

The best doctor I have seen in a long time, he listened to me, did his own blood pressure and pulse readings and is very personable. His staff remember my name and are always helpful.

Felt extremely patronized and perhaps listened to, but not heard. Immediately and repeated alluding to depression because he did not know what was causing my physical symptoms. Clearly when you are seeking a specialist, you can be upset, but he had very little patience and zero empathy. I have never written a doctor review before, but I have never had such a bad office visit. The office staff, on the other hand, was extremely professional.

care philosophy

Infectious disease involves detailed history taking and physical exam with the history being paramount. Small details are important so that I try to obtain the appropriate history which may also aid in guiding patients to the correct specialist(s).
