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.

It’s been 10 years since Dr. Altmann saved my life. I had a severe infection in a replacement. Thank you Dr. Altmann. You are always in my prayers

Doesn’t stand up for her patients!
I have a very bad infection from a hip replacement that’s been going on for 7 years. Well, back 7 years ago I had a wound VAC on for 3 months which should’ve been for 2-3 weeks. So during one of my wound VAC changes they took samples of the infection, and found that 2 of the 3 couldn’t be treated with oral medication. My appointment was on a Friday. Dr. Altmann said that she would schedule the appointment for a PICC line on Monday, because she had a medical conference to go to. I had to see my orthopedic doctor for my hip right afterwards. He tells me that these bugs are on your body, and how I don’t need a PICC line?? What? Dr. Altmann agreed with him, and just claimed up. Didn’t back up anything she said before. Next thing I knew during my wound VAC change 4 weeks later I was very sick. Here I was in sepsis shock, and my organs were shutting down. I spent 2 months in the hospital. I also found reading my medical records Dr. Altmann doesn’t know much about wound VAC’s.

Never could get anything straight. Backed down to other doctors even though she was supposed to be treating the infections. She never did.
