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 Green is an outstanding surgeon, thorough, and uncompromising in the care he gives his patients. He is forthright and readily answers questions. He has the capacity to easily manage multifaceted and complex disease states. I never felt at a loss for information during my two weeks in hospital. I believe his expertise saved my life and will forever be grateful he was the physician at hand when a confluence of medical crises nearly took my life. Thank you, Dr Green.

I had a rather complicated problem and needed colon surgery. Dr. Green did the surgery with the assistance of one of his partners and Dr. Wenzel, a gynecologist. He consulted surgeons at the University of Iowa as well as his own partners. The surgery went well and I was very pleased with the care and attention given to me by Dr. Green.

Dr Green is an amazing surgeon. Dr Green and his nurse Sally are a great duo. He is very talented at what he does and it doesn't take long to discover this. He's also well practiced and known for excelling in his area of expertise among his patients and hospital staff alike. I would consider one blessed to have Dr. Benjamin Green as a surgeon. Personally, if I had to go through my umbilical hernia surgery again I would request none other than Dr Green. He's really that good.

Dr Green performed two surgeries, I also saw him numerous times to check my healing after having a wound vac machine installed. He was very caring, courteous, considerate. I liked him personally and have utmost confidence in him.
