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. Baker is always so attentive and respectful. Very clear with instructions and follow up

Knowledgeable and Friendly
Dr Baker was great. I visited for a second opinion on my rotator cuff injury. He gave a very very good explanation and opinion about my condition. He takes his time listening and giving answers, no rush, for me a plus when visiting a doctor. I strongly recommend Dr Baker.

No personality, he’s just worried about him
Poor ethics and vanity. All he talked about was the 70 patients he had to see and no concern for my situation. The PA had an attitude as well. Maybe they should find something else to do
