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.

Dr Braun is amazing.
Dr Braun took a very deformed, very painful, bone on bone knee and made it straight, pain free and got me walking over a mile within 3 months. I highly recommend Dr. Braun.

The staff was extremely polite and knowledgeable. Dr Braun and his physician's assistant explain things very thoroughly and we were able to come up with the game plan.

I like Dr Braun and Seth! Don’t want to switch.
Customer service not so much. Greeting on phone and at front desk at Oldsmar, super unpleasant, like she doesn’t want to be there. Her tone with customers is opposite of how she speaks to coworkers. Phone manners are non-existent. Doesn’t even say goodbye. Just slams the phone down.
