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.

Fabulous surgeon!
I was in a serious car accident and suffered a broken sternum. I required emergency surgery to put three metal plates in my chest. He and his staff were fantastic! I am grateful.

He saved my husband's life (and my sanity)
My husband had a heart attack in May, 2017, and didn't know it. So he didn't go to his doc until 2 days later. Dr Russell did a difficult valve replacement and after 6-9 months my spouse is back using his elliptical for an hour a day!
