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. Craig is a fantastic individual with great bedside manner!

Dr Craig has been my doctor for years. He always explains what I need. After injections from him my back pain or my s sciatic nerve pain is gone. Today I told him about my foot being numb. After assessing my leg and foot he referred me too another doctor. I was sent to that doctor the very next day. He is your guy if you have back problems he is your guy.
