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.

When I saw doctor after a month long rude wait time because of his two rude and disrespectful recepionists, doctor was good, but service to try to get back in to see him because I'm a referral not on my own is very RUDE! See about the receptionists, these two are saying you can't see him until January 2021. Know what flip you!! Not a happy camper! I do NOT back this place!!
