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.

Great doctor
Dr Sherman is a great doctor, one of the best in his field. I went to him with a problem and he would not stop until he found out what is was and I appreciate him and thank him for listening to me even when I thought I was going crazy not knowing what was happening. I appreciate him and would’nt change him for any thing.

I went for a routine colonoscopy screening. Dr Sherman spent a good bit of time before and after explaining things to me and answering my questions. Dr. Sherman and the staff executed the procedure professionally and with care.

Patient.
Dr. Sherman is very professional, from the beginning he recommended a diet that has helped me a lot with the discomfort I have in my stomach, during the endoscopy procedure he and all the Atlantic clinic staff were very attentive and we can feel the empathy they feel for the discomforts of patients. The doctor came to see me before and after the procedure, giving me explanations and encouraging me that everything will going to turn out very well. I am still waiting for some results of the samples that were taken during the procedure, but I am confident that Dr. Sherman will finally found what is the problem I have and that way I can improve my quality of life. Many blessings to the doctor and all the staff that work with him in his office and at the Atlantic clinic, they are all spectacular and the condition of both places are wonderful.
