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.

November 2019 Acute Cholecystectomy
My gallbladder had a severe blockage and infection. Dr. Ross did a marvelous job performing Laparoscopic surgery very minimal scars, also caught it in time with no complications after. I’m looking to get stomach upper sphincter surgery done for acid reflux issues having had monitors confirm issue. Also had soft tissue removal done by him in 2020, very satisfied with his work. I would demand his work, he is my primary surgeon I want working on me!

Not a good day
Dr Simafranca did not answer my questions and rushed to his decisions and anctions. I am not sure if he was mad at me or just was not in a good mood on this day.

Dr.Simafranca was definitely the most genuine doctor ive met. I came to him with a small hernia that was causing me umbilical pains. I also explained to him that I’ve been having stomach issues & he was able to order me a test that confirmed his suspensions. Turns out I needed to have my gallbladder removed as well! Dr. Simafranca is A+ rating!
