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 Fox injected my foot for a painful neuroma and totally relieved my pain. He made orthotics to support my foot post injection and prevent further problems with the neuroma. His technique with giving injections was superior. I have had other doctors give me injections in the past and they caused me a lot of pain. Dr Fox sprayed the foot with a freezing product before injecting a steroid.
