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 Kidd is the best and I am so grateful his office got me in again to see him again. I am grateful for how seriously he takes me to ensure I maintain as much health as I can.

Outstanding Specialist
I just saw Dr. Kidd and want to say this is one of the best doctor's and medical experiences I have had - shared with Dr. Sull and Dr. Polakof who are in the same office. I have been a patient at UCLA since 2022 and the providers there don't even look at you. Dr. Kidd did xrays before the exam, came into the room prepared to have a conversation. He asked me to explain what happened and what I feel now. He said what I shared aligned with the xrays. He created a noninvasive and supportive care plan that I trust. His medical support Shannon, X-ray tech Alvin and Brooke at the front desk were so kind, helpful and empathetic. I can't recommend Dr. Kidd or his colleagues enough. I was terrified to see an orthopedist or any pain management specialist, because of bad experiences at UCLA where they immediately jump to surgery. Dr. Kidd was focused on supportive integrative care and I greatly appreciated his support for this.

Dr. Kidd is an A+ surgeon and physician. He is very present, listening sincerely to my questions. He never rushes me and always answers every question even though he has probably heard the same question hundreds of times before from other patients. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
