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.

Very disrespectful to orders of doctors and surgeons who have been treating their patients for years !!! Without seeing patients send to Queen of the Valley rehabilitation - you quickly discover this is a contract facility and not actually part of Queen of the Valley hospital! If you have a family member with a drug issue - he’s probably a good person to see, However if you or family member has had major surgery or injuries and needs care, compassions, strength training ... this doctor sees it as his job to disregard history of patients and orders from doctors who have had patients in their care for years. Furthermore- it has been our observation that before a weekend or most especially a holiday - being transferred from hospital to any rehab facilities is a terrible mistake- doctors are not present- staff is at minimal levels and issues cannot be addressed until start of a new work week. Paperwork gets lost and no administration.
