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.

In June, 1996 Dr. Castleberry not only saved my son's life, he saved his QUALITY of life. When the (then) current protocol for Wilms tumor said to do Chemo and Radiation treatments, Dr. Castleberry bravely offered us the option to use a protocol to be promulgated a few months from that time, which did not call for the treatments, only that the patient be closely monitored when the tumor was Stage 1 and the age of the patient is "newborn". In December 2019, my son will graduate with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, minor in Physics. I strongly doubt this would have been possible had he undergone Chemo and Radiation starting at less than a month of age. Absolutely, Dr. Castleberry is the BEST.
