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 always have a list of questions to ask and current health information since our last meeting.....the good doctor satisfies most of my concerns during the exam and then chats with me about whatever else I have left on my notes in his office after the exam. I leave his office feeling physically and mentality fulfilled . He's a good doc....
