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.

Outstanding Surgeon!
Dr J performed a surgery on my mother that other doctors would not perform. He is the best doctor we have ever had. He is caring, and so easy to speak to. His staff is also excellent.

Dr Jarnagin is the best of the best. I was very worried about my husband having to undergo the very complicated and high risk Whipple Surgery, but he was in very good hands. Dr. Jarnigan is not only a highly skilled surgeon but he was kind and compassionate to us which made this very scary process so much easier.

Dr.Jarnagin is an outstanding surgeon. He performed a Whipple procedure on me for pancreatic cancer in 2015, and saved my life. I just can’t say enough good things about him, his staff or Sloan Kettering hospital. This was a very complicated procedure and he was exceptional at it, I would highly recommend him.

$1225 for about 5 minutes consultation, Misdiagnosis my liver abscesses into primary liver cancer, "100% is HCC, do not need any liver biopsy and just schedule liver surgery ASAP." Based on he is "authority" of liver cancer diagnosis and surgery, I arranged extremely expensive liver surgery to remove "liver tumors". But I did second MRI, and finds both my lesions shrunk from 6.8 into 4.9 and 3.6 into 3.4cm in 10 days, and final diagnosis is liver abscess not HCC. Disaster avoid.
