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 Furman is a caring physician/surgeon and takes time explaining procedures and listening to your concerns. The office staff are so kind. I would recommend him highly. I had two surgeries and he did a great job caring and helping me through my ordeal. Great physician/surgeon for sure. Thank you Dr Furman . Diane Nunn Cookeville , TN
