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.

I took my husband to Dr hunter many times for egd’s since he was having swallowing problems. He did biopsy’s each time and assured us he had esophagitis and it wasn’t cancer. My husband passed away from esophagus cancer because Dr Hunter had no idea what he was looking at. Before my husband passed, I took him to John’s Hopkins in Baltimore. They told us the cancer had been there for a while and just over looked. By the time I got my husband to John’s Hopkins the cancer was too advanced and he lost his life. I’m heart broken. Be careful when trusting someone with your life.
