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.

One of the best physicians I've ever seen. Is concerned with overall health. I highly recommend him.

He listens intently and explains everything thoroughly in great detail and has no problem explaining again if there's any confusion. He's been my doctor for 10 years and I trust him fully.

Worst, laziest physician I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. It's Synthroid or nothing with this guy. He truly could not care less if it doesn't work. The good news is if you disagree with him he will just "discharge you from the practice" and backfill with the next victim!

He is the best of the best. Patient, kind, understanding a true southern gentleman! Very knowledgeable and able to talk with his patients so they can understand what he tells them.
