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.

Polite, but abrupt bedside manner; doesn't fully explain procedures/possible side effects; doesn't allow time for questions--must catch him quickly. OVERBOOKS! The last lobby wait was 1-1/2 hours before even getting into an examining room. Emergencies come up, but there is NO EXCUSE for this kind of wait. Simple solution: 1-1/2 hrs out, call patient ahead of time to come in later; 30-60 mins., tell patient when he arrives. EVERYONE's time is valuable and should be respected! Nice staff.

Hasty exam, his mind seemed to be elsewhere. Didn't catch a tear in my retina.
