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.

In 2008 Dr Kassam removed a meningioma brain tumor from my head, that nobody else would even touch. I was told over and over from surgeons across the country that it was inoperable. He gave me my life back and I couldn't be more thankful for the extra effort he put forth.
