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 was my mom's doctor at a nursing home. I was there when he examined her...took all of 3 minutes....worst examination ever...he told me she was the healthiest woman there...noticed a lump beside her nose after he left...took her to another doctor...it was cancer and it was fatal...why is this guy a doctor???

The doctor is seeing our mother at Westin in Northampton. My husband called his office to get a report ( he is medical POA) and the woman who answered the phone said that they keep no records on the patients from Westin. We find this to be totally unacceptable.
