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 Simpfendorfer is a brilliant doctor and a rare cardiology specialist in America who did an excellent job inserting a new aorta heart valve in my dad (age 89) through the groin. He has a kind and professional bedside manner, explained his medical procedures well and has wonderful follow up afterwards. We highly recommend him and his excellent staff including Linda Nath, NP.

Twice now at different hospital I have had horrific issues with failure to treat from this doc. I am a complex patient with 4 rare disease and Coroanry Artery Spasm as well as Coronary Micro Vessel disease. MY cardiologist has provided a written letter that explains that if I present at ER with Angina that I should be treated with IV Nitroglycerin My care several year ago was escalated to Mayo, then to National Jewish Health and presently National Institute of Health are all involved with care.
