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.

Very caring
He is working hard with my husband’s drop foot to help him get back to walking without this problem! Dr Callahan cares and it shows, I wish all doctors had his great bedside manners! Thanks for being there for us. Your office staff is great also!

You've got to remember to follow doctors' orders. Trust! #1 and #2 Be proactive in your care. Doctors aren't Miracle Workers, the care you receive sometimes depends on how you follow instructions.

Excellent!!! He really took an interest and kept on doing different tests and sending me to different doctors that were specialists in their fields. He seems to be leaving no stone unturned with me and continues to dig deeper into my situation.

Some years ago, this doctor accurately diagnosed in me a very rare condition called transient global amnesia... a bizarre but fascinating random occurrence that he took a caring interest in, following it closely, much to my appreciation. That must have been appx 15 years ago. Also, personally, a very interesting guy to talk to... and he occasionally took the time to talk. How many doctors are like that these days? Personal note to Dr. Callahan: I remember the story about the expensive socks bought in NYC!

You simply don't find physicians like Dr. Callahan anymore. What an incredibly caring individual! Besides having such compassion and empathy, his knowledge is astounding. There truly aren't enough accolades to express how grateful I am that he is still practicing and taking such good care of my family.
