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.

I had a heart attack Easter Sunday,2017. l have had many health conditions & surgeries in my 66 yrs. I have never had any physician demonstrate the level of care that Dr. Hamm & his practice provided to me. His thoroughness, daily attendance, offers of assistance, & insistence on immediate response to his patient's needs was resssuring & comforting at time when my heart & my life were on the line. You cannot go wrong by choosing Dr. Hamm as a physician. Deborah Stair
