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.

There is not enough to be said. The doctor and staff are phenomenal and I would not trust my care to anyone else. From initial scheduling of my appointment to scheduling my follow-up, everything is done with ease. Wonderful doctor with great bedside manner.

My asthma rescue inhaler prescription expired so I made an appointment with Dr. Diefes. The appointment was for two weeks away. I was told the prescription would be called into the drug store. No prescription was called in on my behalf. I called Dr. Diefes' office and was told that I would not be getting any prescriptions due to "Non-compliance". I was non-compliant because I had not seen the Dr. for 10 months. With an appointment scheduled the Dr. would not provide me with a rescue inhaler.
