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 Clarkson treated my mother’s breast cancer. She thought the world of him. She went to him when initially diagnosed and it went into remission for over 10 years. He moved away for a few years and she had to see someone else who would not listen to her about thinking something was wrong about not feeling well and would not run required tests. it was put down to muscle soreness or something like that. She saw that Dr multiple times about it and other non oncologists about it to no avail. So when Clarkson moved back she went to him, and he ran the appropriate tests and found out that her cancer had come back as stage 4. He treated her until she passed away about 5 yrs later. Everyone in the office treated her and my dad with kindness and respect. She might still be with us if the other doctor had bothered to do the appropriate tests.
