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.

Didn't seem experienced enough in my condition, and won't really listen. I think he has only a one-track mind?

Provider was inept, and quite frankly should no longer be practicing. Working in the medical field, I was shocked at how he conducted the exam with such carelessness. How he hasn't been sued for negligence is astounding.
