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.

Best anesthesiologist in Lincoln!
Dr. Hartwig has very reassuring bedside manners, and wonderfully & effectively accommodated my special needs through a procedure! Can’t sing his praises high enough!

Procedure Fine, Report Inaccurate
Dr. Hartwig inaccurately assigned me a rating stating I was a patient with a severe disease. I am not diagnosed with a disease. This procedure and my other doctors verify I do not have any current diseases. I have had other procedures with anesthesia and have never been rated as a patient with a severe disease. When talking with Dr. Hartwig he stated he was not willing to change the rating to a level indicating I am a healthy adult. He saw me for a very short time on a table. He did not have any way to accurately assess any of my current states or abilities. His rational was akin to saying because someone had a prior injury or issue, they can currently be considered impaired. Using a global rating scale to describe a patient with broad categories is inappropriate and archaic in medicine. I caution others thinking they may want to use Dr. Hartwig given his rigidity with fitting patients into scales instead of reporting about them as an individual.
