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.

Horrible doctor. He didn't seem to know what he was doing. He kept asking the attending nurse what his opinion was while my husband was there. He seemed more interested in watching what was on the TV then taking care of my husband! I am not sure what type of degree he has but it was concerning.

This doctor is was the most rude doctor, let alone person, that I have ever met. Rather than asking direct questions, this doctor spoke made assumptions and spoke to us with such sarcasm and disrespect that it honestly left me speechless. Just because you work in a town and a hospital that deals with a lot of drug addicts, does NOT mean that every person who comes into the ER is a junkie, and that is EXACTLY how we were treated here. Rude. Condescending. Unprofessional. Never going back. EVER.
