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.

We are forever grateful for Dr. Tolo and how much he helped my son. He was willing to do surgery and remove a large osteochondroma on my son's lower leg. Many doctors refused to do this surgery but Dr. Tolo believed he could do it successfully and he did. We are forever grateful to Dr. Tolo for his expertise, for his willingness to help my son even when so many doctors refused, and for his kind way of treating Matthew and us! He is one of our all time heroes!

He’s Amazing. He did spinal reconstructive surgery on me almost 10 years ago. He simply changed my life and I haven’t had any problems with my spine since then. Thank you Dr. Tolo

Dr. Tolo did 2 neck and a knee reduction for my daughter. He happens to be one of the few Ortho Dr's on the west coast who knows the dwarf body. As far as I know he has several dwarf patients. We have recommended several other dwarfs to him.

Amazing Surgeon and an amazing human. My Daughter has had a UBC since she was 3 years old. She is now 9.5 and Dr. Tolo has taken care of her for the past 4+/- years. He is honest and you feel like family when he talks to you. My daughter trusts Dr. Tolo and feels very confident with his recommendations for her condition.
