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.

20 year heart patient. I see Dr. Grattan every six months and it is a pleasure to make visits to his office. He has seen me through 9 bypasses in two surgeries. I have great confidence in the surgeons he works with too. I will not move from the area because of Dr. Grattan and his wonderful care.

I was forgotten in closed door exam room for 3 hours. No one came to check on me or see why door was closed. Thirsty and walls closing in, I finally opended the door near closing time and politely asked why have I had to wait 3 hours. Lady did not know but said she would check. Apparently my chart was paperclipped to someone else's and was filed away for processing. While mistakes happen, why did neither staff nor doctor inquire to my status? Dr. apologized. Don't wait past 1 hour before asking.

When I visited his office I felt he was in a hurry and did not fully explain my heart condition to me. I left confused. I tried to call his office for clarification, but they didn't return voice mails or answer the phone. Thankfully I was urged by friends to get a second opinion at Covenant. The two Cardiologists had different courses of action. I may well be alive today because I took the time and effort to get another opinion. I can not recommend Dr. Grattan or Cardiologists of Lubboc
