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.

He is not a Doctor with Compassion
From the start he was bothered with an attitude and tone like he could care less about what my concern was. Abrupt rude and dismissive. Never examined me or cared to help me to understand what was going on and who I could see if he couldn't help me. For a doctor to tell me I don't have a problem with my vagus nerve or vessels in my neck brain etc without even hearing my concerns or examining me is horrible and very upsetting. When he got mad and snapped at me after telling him I was referred to go see a vascular doctor and was suffering from many issues connected to the vagus nerve he said so rude cut like a knife ' what do you want me to do for you?' I was horrified hurt and disappointed. I stood up and said I came to you for help advice recommendation but your just treating me like I did something wrong. Literally he walked out the room. The manager just so happen to be standing at the door and came in to speak with me to see what happened. She was so kind and professional.

Bedside manner is awful. I had a very severe sinus infection and he was rude about prescribing an antibiotic to me. He said “you all have the same story, every time you have a cold you come in for a antibiotic.” This was most certainly not the case for me. He wa the rudest doctor I have ever encountered.
