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 seems uninterested in his patients' well-being and cursory in his examination, diagnosis and treatment.

WORST DOCTOR I'VE BEEN TO
As other reviews here and other sites state. He does not care, treats patients poorly and simply does not show any concern to what patient says or is in to see him for. Lack of empathy, or burnt out and just doesn't care - I do not know, but clearly should not be in the line of "caring" for people. Bum.

His communication with patients is very poor. He doesn’t care about his patient, it is just wasting the time and getting angry to be his patient.

did not give proper instructions to pharmacy
Important medication needed was unavailable because doctor did not give proper instructions to pharmacist. So, I could not get it when needed.

I've been seeing him for 4 years. He's always up on reports from Dana Farber. He's easy to talk to and quite informative. I'm pleased with the service.

Not sure why the bad reviews. He is funny, empathetic and doesn't rush you. I've always had a good experience with him.
