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 am eternally grateful to Dr. Frank Darras. He was and is an amazing surgeon who may well have saved my life last month with my kidney transplant. He was/is an extremely kind and skillful surgeon who has superior interpersonal skills. Thank you for your service. It is amazing that someone so talented and gifted as you can not only be so humble and genuine, but also be so compassionate and reassuring as well... thank you so much Dr. Darras.

Dr Darras performed my transplant surgery when I donated my kidney to my father. He explained everything, has an excellent bedside manner, and knows his stuff! An excellent surgeon. He answers my questions before I even ask them!
