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. Pearse has done several procedures for me over the years, including catheters for IV Antibiotics and my fistula for dialysis. He is one of the easiest Drs I've ever had to work with as far as his communication and scheduling goes. If you have an issue, it's most likely on your part because even his office staff communicates well and are very friendly/ helpful.

He should not be practicing medicine. He does not know what he is doing. I saw him for numbness in leg and he said it was block artery and didnt want to do bypass.

Less than 1 week after my surgery I called the office asking for a non-narcotic medication to help with the pain as the Percocet was not setting well with me. I wanted ibuprofen 800. The woman who answered told me that I shouldn't have pain less than 1 week after surgery and it is illegal for them to prescribe medication before my follow up. I am embarrassed and insulted. I cancelled my follow up and will be contacting a patient advocate.
