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.

I can honestly tell you that the way this man treated my partner when she was in the ER this past weekend was DESPICABLE! She was having a SEVERE MS exacerbation and seizure and he stood over her bed and called her a drug addict and refused to give her anything to bring down the pain...specifically told her “If you think I’m giving you anything for your pain you are wrong bc i am not”. Turns out in that process she had a MS hug that ended up collapsing her left ventricle of her heart. awful Dr.
