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.

He is the doctor that put nail and screw's in my leg to fix my femur. Obviously he dose not care for his patients enough to do any thing about any pain they are in he proscribe me the same medicine twice after I had told him the first time the medicine did not help. I called when I finally realized the medicine was the same and this was on a Monday and was told I would get a call back on Wednesday after noon. It is now 8:53pm and still nothing

My son was the first surgery patient of the day and Dr Young was over an hour late arriving. The surgery was mangled with my son having ongoing issues. We had to take him to another surgeon to clean up the mess including things left that shouldn’t be in his body and things removed that shouldn’t have been. He is permanently maimed since the other doctor couldn’t replace what shouldn’t have been taken out at all. Then the office refused to release my sons records to hide the mistakes

I saw Dr Young in August '17 re my shoulder pain. He was excellent! He cared about my pain and the level of it. He explained 4 ways on how to fix it but pushed no particular one on me, it would be my decision. He was very pleasant and considerate. The office is busy with all the other Dr's in the same office but to get to see a great Dr that's okay with me.
