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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Benson?
I was amazed at the depth of his training. He has dipomas from everywhere. I found his staff friendly and helpful. The doctor himself was kind. He treated me as a human being. I am so tired of going to doctors that spend more time typing in the computer instead of paying attention to me. While I was dilating I had a chance to talk with the other patients. Doctor Benson obviously cares about his patients.
