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.

Heather, the PA in this office, is skilled and competent. I follow her suggestions and advice to remain in good health.

He is the type of doc that listens to your concerns. He is thorough and very caring. He will set a course of action and refer as needed. I have been a patient for over 20 years and am thankful for his knowledge and diagnosing skills.
