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.

Knowledgeable, but not communicative
Dr. Clark seems to be very knowledgeable, but he didn’t give me enough time to process and ask questions, and the whole visit felt rushed. I feel like his focus was on the prescription medication above all else when I wanted to talk about the causes of my symptoms and how to mitigate those with both prescription medication and other practices. He may be a gifted doctor, but I struggled to get what I needed out of the appointment because it didn’t seem like he wanted to explain things.

rushed
He barely spent five minutes with me on my annual visit. Reading his report on-line later, I find he stated I use oxygen at night time. NOT TRUE.

Dr. Clark was very unprofessional and showed no compassion to my friend as he gave her some critical news. He did not even have a real conversation..just showed her photo on the computer and made the tragic diagnosis. That was it! No further discussion..no human care or even a hint of professionalism. Needless to say she will not go back, now will any of her friends and family. Such a disgrace!
