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.

Dr. Lipner treated my husband with respect and patience. He is a polite and concerned doctor. He doesn't rush you out of his office and takes the time to discuss any questions you may have. Highly recommend.

Dr. Lipner is the best doctor you could ever find. He could help me to get rid of the flank pain that I had for more than 3 months. At least 4 other doctors and the emergency room doctors did nothing to help me. Courteous, professional, and thoughtful doctor.
