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.

Appreciate that he always takes the time to get the patient’s opinion and encourages discussion.

He defers everything to his pa and medical assistants. He won’t return phone calls. The appointment went fine but the follow up plan he suggested, he disappeared and then just told his receptionist I’d need to make another appointment to discuss our plan he recommended which was just supposed to be a phone call

Excellent urologist
Dr Niver is an excellent urologist who cares deeply and is highly skilled. He explains things thoroughly and orders what is best practice. The group he works for, however, lacks organization and sensitivity, but that’s not his fault.

Would never choose to see this provider
I was admitted to the hospital through the ER and forced to see and have a procedure performed by Dr. Niver. He was rude and condescending, and snapped and yelled at me when I asked for time to make an informed decision about the procedure. After being discharged from the hospital, his staff had no record that my procedure was even performed, but I received a text and email mere hours later demanding payment. If I had a choice, I would never see Dr. Niver.
