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 Chow is one of the best doctors anyone could hope or even dream of having. Dr Chow is the doctor all my other doctors wanted me to have one it was discovered I have stage 4 kidney cancer. Thanks to the care I was giving I had and have no fear about treating or living with cancer because I know I couldn't be in better hands to see me through this.

Dr. Chow is extremely welcoming and open during appointments. Dr. Chow tells it how it is and doesn't given a BS answer. He voices his opinions and clinical knowledge and welcomes patient views and thoughts. He was able to squeeze in a procedure during our appointment, that I would have otherwise had to return to have done.
