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.

I had the GREAT fortune of getting Dr Daodu assigned to my Fathers medical case when he went to the E.R. at Dominican. He had been infected with the Coxsackievirus (aka hand, foot and mouth) and his legs and feet were covered in sores and blisters. Dr's tend to ignore secondary issues when a patient suffers from CHF because those patients get swollen legs to a degree where they look bad. This was definitely different and Dr Daodu was the only one to take it seriously and admitted my Dad to the hospital where we found out that his potassium was dangerously high. He'd have very likely died if he'd gone home. Dr Daodu is an intelligent, empathetic man and we got lucky finding him. Dr's appear to listen to elderly people when truly they're basically pacifying them to get through an appointment. We didn't experience that with Dr. Daodu. He looked at symptoms, ran tests and came to conclusions that I'm sure saved my Dads life. I highly recommend this outstanding physician.
