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 Blinman was great! He explained everything clearly and in a very friendly fashion. He was respectful and answered all our questions. The outcome of the surgery exceeded all our expectations. My child was doing so well she was able to leave the hospital in less than 24 hours. We traveled a long way to be able to see him and it was worth our trip and our trust.

Horrible doctor!
A horrible doctor with an incredibly mean and poor bedside manner. He spoke to my child and myself in a very degrading and cold manner. The only thing he emphasized was that my child could die either way with or without surgery and insulted her while she laid in a hospital bed in excruciating pain and incredibly ill. Is this really a surgeon that you want touching your child? I told him to leave the room and he was not allowed to come back or I was going to call security. He’s incredibly self-centered and a very cruel human being. If I could rate with a zero star, then I would have.
