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.

Always available and cares about his patients

Should have his license revoked. Treated my father in law with Alzheimer’s by giving him ECT. Continued this treatment twice a week for several weeks until he was in a vegetative state. Got a second opinion and was told that ECT is not a protocol treatment for Alzheimer’s. Do not go to this man! If I had it all to do over, he would have been reported to the medical board.
