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.

Delayed review
I’m sure the doctor is probably good, but I ended up missing out on the financial support for my surgery because of their scheduler’s incompetence. Superior communication skills are paramount in such a job and the person I dealt with doesn’t have them. Years later I still need surgery and am less able to afford it.

Great surgeon with an interest in taking care of immediate issues as well as guiding you on your overall health. I met him during an emergency visit to the hospital where he was my surgeon. He was very thorough in explaining my condition and what steps he was going to perform to correct the issue. After surgery, he was great at explaining how it went and what steps to take to avoid same or similar issues in the future. Follow up visits weren't rushed and he took the time to suggest lifestyle changes as well as giving me a referral for future follow up visits with an oncologist.

Dr. DeLine performed a repair of my umbilical hernia. He did a great job and after just 9 days since the surgery, I have no pain and no unsightly bump on my belly button. It was a fairly large hernia. He performed an "open mesh" repair with general anesthesia. The surgery took about 45 minutes. Surgery was at 7am and I was home comfortably resting by 10:30 am. I felt comfortable and confident in his care. I would highly recommend him to my family and friends.
