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.

Amazing Doctor
Dr. Simani saw 2 of my pregnancies through. Even though he was almost an hour away I made the trip because it was always a joy to see him and I trust him completely. He always made me feel like he genuinely cared about me and made my pregnancies worry-free. Dr. Simani calmed me down before going through a c-section and gave me a great pep-talk. He really deeply cares for his patients and goes out of his way to make them feel secure. I will recommend him any chance I get because he is a superstar.
