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.

Where did he go after Core Institute
I had Dr. Ros do a corrective surgery after my 1st surgery went wrong, did amazing job he explains everything very clearly, and even sent me to another surgeon to confirm his findings and recommendation for 2nd surgery before he did surgery. I need to do a follow up with him but he left Core Institute hope to find his new location. Do not want to go to anyone else.

Approachable and gentle.
Courteous staff from entry to exit. Well organized and clean facilities. Dr Ros showed me the xrays, explained what he saw, made a recommendation to which I said yes.

Dr Ros is always very nice, thorough and helpful. He brought up a pic on the computer to show me what the problem is with my finger. He gets to the point, he is direct but kind.
