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.

Do not let this man do any kind of sergery on you. He did a uteral ablation one and left me slowly bleeding inside. I went back to him and he said there was nothing wrong with me. A year later I woke up in the worst pain you can imagine. Had to go to the Mayo clinic for five days of test to be told I need an emergency hysterectomy. He also operated o. A friend of mine and left her in intensive care for a month. He cut a main artery. He was banned from operating at Lakeland hospital.

Great doctor! The only Doctor I've ever been comfortable with for my ob Doctor! He lets you know each and every step he's taking during a evaluation of any kind for the visit. He explains everything very well when asked. He has delivered 3 children of mine 09, 14, and 15. All my children was c section deliveries and we had no issues. My c section is barely seen and I had easy recovery. Dr pap is just an all around wonderful Doctor! Will be missed dearly!!!!!!
