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.

Went with my mother to her appointment to discuss her concerns with Dr. Ternes. He was an hour late by the time I left! Had to leave my mother alone there to get my cranky toddler fed. Couldn’t believe she had to wait so long to be seen for her appointment. Have no idea when she actually was seen after I left, disgusted, at the 1 hour mark. All over the office were signs encouraging patients to wish him a happy Doctor Day. Yeah. Right.
