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.

Dr. Block has treated me for serious autoimmune disease for more than 20 years. He is the best doctor I’ve ever had. Dr. Block is an “old school” doctor, meaning he is polite and professional and very focused on your care and condition; he asks many questions about how you’ve been since he last saw you and is very thorough. I can see how someone might interpret him as distant, however he is (again) old school and somewhat formal. I feel strongly that with Dr. Block, I truly have the best care possible for my disease because for many years he has gone the extra mile for me to identify and treat this serious disease, and although he has been practicing medicine for 45 years, he stays current with research and treatment practices. He is extremely caring, a little fatherly, and he is 120% committed to providing his patients with the best care possible, even though we are in a small town. My quality of life is as good as it is thanks to Dr. Sidney Block.
