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.

My experience with Dr. Fleming was definitely a very positive one. He is a great listener and very knowledgeable. I also appreciate his sense of humor which puts his patients as ease.

Dr. Fleming evaluated my mother thoroughly and explained test results clearly. He answered all of our questions clearly and explained his recommendations. He listened to my mother's concerns. Dr. Fleming was knowledgeable and easy to talk with.

I saw Dr. Fleming in Dec. 2017. I had taken 4 different antibiotics since Oct. and was still coughing terribly and coughing up colored mucus. He looked at the computer for awhile and talked to me some and said "you don't have an infection so keep doing what you're doing." So as of today, Jan. 2018, I'm the same and miserable.

He told an elderly woman that there was nothing wrong with her breathing, lung function tests did not lie, and her breathing problem was mental. She came to see him because her ability to breathe, and therefore her mobility, had taken a rapid nosedive. Her family and friends were alarmed by the obvious and rapid changes in her functioning, and everywhere she went strangers kept trying to get help for her. Her problem was not mental; she had multiple pulmonary emboli in both lungs and DVT.
