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.

Doc Fowler has always been extraordinarily engaging, thorough, and helpful. He has always been very straight with me; without any vituperativeness, or sanctimoniousness, or temerity. My *ONLY* issue is with Dr. Fowler's new corporate overlords that have removed the former fantastic "Cheers" type atmosphere and what seems like a loss of autonomy. The recent addition of an amaneunesis, which is likely a timesaver for the good doc it causes unease to other patients I've talked to.

He forgets what he has told me when I go for a follow up visit. He can be hateful.
