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. Zachary Tan sent a nurse to insert an IV needle without my knowledge or consent. I had only given consent for a routine blood test. That IV needle kept me from just leaving the emergency Room. Dr. Tan kept arguing and harassing me about having 3 chest-x-rays under the pretext that I might have pneumonia even though I was there for an allergy caused sinus congestion and earache. He had a male nurse come with amoxicillin even though my chart showed that I am very allergic to penicillin. I did not take those pills.
