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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Peterson?
Dr. Peterson is easy to talk to and listens to my concerns. He takes the time to discuss all my concerns (and there are a lot!) and maps out a plan based on my needs and his recommendations. I suffer from vertigo and he is the only ENT who I feel is willing to work with me and try to make the attacks as few and far between as possible (with quite a bit of success). The only drawback is there is sometimes a wait once you get there.
