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.

He was the best to have on my side. Much respect for him n professionalism. Always had a smile on his face.

This is not a review about Dr. Canter. It is a review of his relatively new partner, Dr. Amanda Kirane. She is an amazing surgeon, a very caring doctor, and is highly skilled. She removed a giant lipoma from my right leg with minimal invasion of surrounding muscle tissue. I trusted her with my life before the surgery, and would not hesitate to have her operate on me again if I needed her help. Dr. Kirane is technically brilliant and has written a number of scholarly reviews and articles.
