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.

Misdiagnosed by Dr. Chavez
I went to see this doctor because I was in great pain and he put me on antibiotics and pain medication. The next day I had to be rushed to the hospital because my appendix had ruptured. Do not go here if you want good health care!

Great on helping me manage Type II while greatly increasing my traveling. Much better care than had gotten before because they are willing to, by phone & emails, with blood draws when in town to have a complete Type II management system that meets my time and other needs.

Dr. Chavez completed ignored my mother's health. She came to him every time something was different/wrong. My mom told him what was wrong and he wouldn't listen, he flat ignored her. Now, after six rounds of back to back antibiotics, tons of xrays, CT's, an MRI (most orders not from him), a hospitalization, completely losing her vision in one eye and about to lose in the other eye, 6 months later she is now a diabetic, found she has an autoimmune disease, blind, can't hear and failing in health
