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.

Hit or Miss
On some issues, he’s on top of it. Takes care of my diabetes well, and will help when I have a cold or ickies. But, do not question about anything else. He did catch a fatty liver, but said just ignore it. Still have lots of pain and trouble sleeping. He does a test or two here or there, but when those come back okay, you’re suddenly cured of pain and whatever else might be troubling you. If it requires effort, he’s not your guy.

When I asked Dr. Smith why I was having eye pain, he shrugged and said, “I don’t know.” I looked up the side effects of a med he had prescribed for me, and eye pain, increased interocular pressure, and glaucoma were listed as side effects. My ophthalmologist appointment indicated my eye pressure had increased significantly... once I stopped the meds, the eye pain subsided and my eye pressure returned to normal levels. Dr. Smith is a nice guy, but I felt he wasn’t always “on top of his game” as a physician.

Apparently you have to apply to become a new patient. We were denied. Relatively healthy with good insurance and all we received was a basic form letter from him stating he wouldn't provide us medical services. When I called and asked why, no answer. It's ridiculous that Doctors have this type of power.
