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.

OUTSTANDING! Great bedside manners. Explains so you can understand.

Rev. Dr. Gregory S Hardaway – Mar 09, 2023
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Sullivan?
I consulted with Dr. Sullivan for sternal non-union & osteomyelitis 5 months post median sternotomy. His treatment plan was outdated & appear to be in conflict with the standard treatment in the Merck Manual. He is not a fan of sternal plating even though this technique has been shown to be superior in its ability to stabilize the sternum & reduced infection reoccurrece rates. His idea of pulling wires & leaving my sternum in piece, I would never be able to return to my job as a manual PT.
