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.

Insulting rude and unprofessional
I only went to get a referral for a cardiologist and explained my reasons. He argued with me and insulted me telling me “this isn’t McDonlds where I can just come in and order whatever I want! I have tests and bloodwork that I paid for out of pocket. i have elevated risk factors which warrant seeing a cardiologist. He said I was not at risk and what tests did I think I would do? I was very angry ans at that point i stormed out and left without a referral.

OK, but not all that thorough, seemed to highlight his outlook on doing medicine, which I found much less satisfactory than Dr. Minkoff

Open minded doctor
Dr. Haffie has been my primary care physician for 3 years. He is always open to discussion about solutions to medical issues. He even works with me on avoiding prescription drugs to solve any issue.

Dr. Haffie was my primary care physician for more than 15 years. He listens carefully, and patiently answers all questions. He is not threatened or defensive if you share some potential treatment you've read about, and will explore the pros and cons with you. He is an outstanding physician, and I wish my current plan allowed me to continue seeing him.
