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.

Terrible Doctor, unfortunately, I met this fool in St. Luke's ER when I was experiencing chest pain. He diagnosed my problem as "Chest pain due to wheezing". I was not comfortable with his diagnosis and was not comfortable leaving with the same pain as coming in with and aske for a supervisor but he refused to get anyone else. He then threatened to have me thrown out of the ER if I did not leave. A visit the next day to a cardiologist and they found a heart stint was needed due to a blockage. Beware if you run across this clown in the ER.

Unbelievable
I went to st Luke’s because I coughed up bloody mucus for two days. I was in the ER for 7 hours while they ran test after test. My first doctor, doctor Welsh was okay…not the best but very standard. The two nurses I had…how I wish I remembered their names… was absolutely GREAT!! 5/5 stars for care and compassion and really listening to me as a patient and being verbal with everything they did through those 7 hours. Now when Doc Welsh left, Dr Cox took over. He came in my room, literally ripped my IV out my arm with the tape and all without saying anything then said “here’s your dish surge paperwork did anyone speak to you?” I said no. (your the doctor aren’t you supposed to speak to me about my diagnosis??) he leaves for two minutes come back and says your free to leave and drops my papers on the counter.I am still hooked up to the monitor computer, still have pulse oxi on my finger and no explanation on my diagnosis or what steps to take. I had to unhook myself and figure it out. Sad
