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.

Pathetic. I had 9 stones impacted in my ureter. He treated me as a drug seeker even after my urine, blood and CT were abnormal. He is disrespectful, rude and does little in the way of an exam. I was an ER doctor for many years and he is an embarrassment to the profession.

Worst ER Dr., we've ever encountered, deserves zero * Husband came in with stroke level bp, he has a diseccted aorta. Let him lay there for 9 hrs, without a drip for his bp. Husband has malignant hypertension, protocol for the past 20 yrs of hospital admissions, is to give him an IV drip to get his bp down. Thank God, his aorta didn't rupture or stroke out. Same thing happened to our postal carrier's husband. Formal complaint will be filled against this Dr. and hospital. Totally unacceptable!!
