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.

2 visits now. Terrible at explaining things, doesn't communicate to me what he writes for recommendations to my OB and doesn't write in the notes to my OB what he says he will. Doesn't listen or answer questions other than to say my baby is a parasite that will destroy me before it harms itself.

Left with more questions than answers, he did the consult DURING the ultrasound, shamed me for not knowing the risks of my condition before pregnancy, and did not explain things well at all and then I was told I didn’t need to come back, oh and when I asked if I should have my baby at that hospital due to them having a NICU he said that they can’t take a baby under 28 weeks- almost assuming my baby wasn’t going to be viable. Disgusted with this doctor and lack of patience and compassion.

Terrible experience - all about the money. Pregnant w/ twins, OB wanted me to see MFM doc at 14 weeks. I go to appt, they know how far along I am. They ask for insurance, I'm self-pay (with a medi-share plan) after discussing w/billing, and me speaking to billing rep, everything is taken care of. 30 mins Later they say I'm not far enough along, come back in 4 wks. Strange that they only figured that out after no ins. Afraid he wasn't getting paid or couldn't nickel & dime an insurance company.

Dr. King was my high risk specialist with both my baby's and he was a wonderful doctor. He always was honest and straight forward with me. He did everything he could to easy my mind any time I was worried. He would even call me at home if I was concerned about something.
