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.

no follow-up
I saw the doctor 7/23 at the Montgomery Dr. clinic. My visit with him was very short, under 10 min. The PT rx the office gave me was for the wrong section of my back. He ordered a cervical MRI, but my ins never received the authorization request and no request was sent to Sutter imaging. He did not enter a note in EPIC and his office has not returned my calls, yet I did pay the copay for the visit. Seems like poor office management and follow through.

I had surgery last year, everything turned out fine, except the medical staff working around him failed to send appropriate documents to my insurance company. I felt I needed to be involved in things that they are responsible for. The staff there really dropped the ball, especially his medical assistant, who was out of the office all the time and did not return phone calls. The paperwork and billing piece was a nightmare so please know this going in.
