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.

Thorough and kind
Unlike with other docs I've had at the same facility, Dr. Herring was thorough, kind, and took his time answering my questions. I felt confident that his treatment improved my health and gave me options for the future. Great doc!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Herring?
Recently my daughter had to visit the emergency room and had the misfortune of receiving treatment from the doctor. His bedside manner is atrocious and the medical treatment she received from him was horrific. Within 3 days of visiting she had to undergo immediate surgery from another doctor due to serious infection spawned for the debris and trash he left in her arm. We had to sue this doctor. In my opinion he falsely pretends to be a doctor but should be auditioning for Bozo the clown.
