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 knowledgeable and personable doctor

This is the 5th anniversary of my pacemaker surgery. Every day I am thinkful that Dr. Darby was assigned to take care of me. As expected, my quality of life is far greater. It is a pleasure to be able to meet with him at this annual appointment. He is quite knowledgeable about his field but he is such a pleasant and engaging person and he is exactly what every patient would hope for in their doctor.
