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.

A piece of work
Dr. Himes gave me the worst interaction I have ever experienced in the medical world in my life. He is an inpatient, unkind, down right unprofessional person. He should not be in this field any longer. He obviously cannot handle showing real human compassion and kindness to his patients and their families correctly. He honestly should be required to attend some sort of therapy or training sessions to fix this issue. It was sickening having him “help” us.

No compassion
My experience with Dr. Edward Himes was extremely disappointing. He lacked compassion and did not address my concerns about my father’s care. He stormed into the hospital room with a negative attitude, making an already stressful situation worse. When I expressed that I felt he was being rude in his tone, he immediately clapped back, saying that I was the one being rude. Instead of listening and showing empathy, he was dismissive and unprofessional. A doctor should provide reassurance and understanding, but that was not the case here. I would not recommend him to anyone seeking a caring and respectful physician.
