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.

The staff is very friendly & accommodating, as are the attending nurses. Dr. Gates would probably be a fine doctor to see if you're feeling well or you don't have (or suspect) any ongoing health issues. I have documented health problems (including mental health issues), but remains unconcerned - instead of, for example, recommending a specialist for my frequent blinding migraines, he said I just need to take some advil and get some exercise. I always feel stupid for even bringing anything up!

Was not concerned about severity of medical issues to assist in referral to specialists for 8 months. General lack of concern and follow up.

His staff helped me when i had no health coverage. Got my diabetes under control. Arranged for daily antibiotic treatment to treat my ostemylytis of the spine. Always found a way for me to recieve treatment or insulin,and never treated me like a charity case. Saved my life !!
