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.

Horrible experience. He kept repeating himself. I tried to answer but he just keeps talking and talking. He is kind of a phony. I think he tries to befriend the patient and make the patient love him, while he can provide substandard care. He comes off as manipulative and a quack

My husband is going to die because Dr Hale missed his cancer diagnosis. He also almost let my husband die from 99% blockage in his coronary artery because he said it was only his stomach!! He Smiles, shakes your hand and looks so concerned. But does nothing to help. And when you call his office you can not get msg to him. Can not get appt. for 6 months. My husband has been in hospital 2xs in 1 mo. gave info to 'Rosemary' never heard from again. Been his pt since 1978! doesn't seem to matter

Dr. Hale is one of the finest doctors you will find that is still practicing. He has been my family's primary care physician for over 12 years and my own personal physician for most of my adult life. He answers all your questions and is genuinely concerned about the health of his patients. When I was in my early twenties I had severe migraine headaches that I woke up with in the mornings. Dr. Hale ran tests and treated me with preventive medicine for which I will always be grateful.
