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. Hay has been my quarter back for about 28 years. He has handled a number if issues and referred me to a terrific team of doctors hat have keep me going strong despite Auto ammine disease and effects that go along with it! The group is busy but they work hard to do the best they can to accommodate the urgency of seeing a doctor ASAP! I would not have the quality of life I have with out Dr. Hay.

I went to see Dr. Hay for chest discomfort. Dr. Hay spent his time going over my history and symptoms, stated what he thought the problem was and prescribed a treatment for that, but also tested for more serious conditions, including an in-office EKG, and provided a referral to a specialist. He gave advice for what to do if there are additional problems prior to the appointment with the specialist. I appreciated being taken seriously & the practical advice given.
