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.

Only wants to make $ but NEVER SPENDS time to figure out exactly whats going on. You led my elderly father to believe he had sinus drainage for YEARS. I had to finally ask for scans that even a pulmonary Dr. couldn't explain. If you would have taken your time to treat your patients right I would have a better outcome. Now I don't have him but if it was maybe your own family member you would have taken your time and learned exactly what's going on. DO NOT send anybody here if you want true answers and love them.

I have been under this physician's care for decades. I find him to be highly trained and a superb practitioner. He has a great sense of humor, a passion for his work and a genuine heart. I have recommended him to many of my friends and colleagues.

Didn't introduce himself, horrible bed side manner, couldnt get out of the room fast enough, he was right and i had no clue was i was talking about (back pain due to car accident) told me an MRI wasn't necessary, that my insurance wouldn't cover it and that meant alot of paper work and being on the phone with insurance for him. Worst experience I've ever had with a doctor. Left the office in tears. Highly DO NOT recommend!!!!!

As a new patient, he spent 5 mins, if that, with me. Did not listen nor did anyone take vitals. I needed forms filled out & he was totally uninterested, almost grouchy, horrible bedside manner. If I had any enemies, I wouldn't send them there!
