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.

Wonderful Surgeon!!
I had lots of family in my room when he arrived. I asked him if they could stay in case they had questions? He answered all questions and remembered all family members names. For me, that shows that he really cares about his patients!!

Excellent
Dr. Bluhm is an excellent surgeon, and is also a pleasure to work with. He is at ease explaining procedures and options, doesn't mind questions and answers them clearly. I was delighted at how short a wait I had for my inguinal hernia surgery, which was completely successful.

Dr. Bluhm came highly recommended and I can see why. A highly skilled surgeon with a great, positive bedside manner. I felt totally at ease with him, my surgeries all went well and follow up care was excellent. I now live out of state, but would go back to Texas for general surgery with Dr. Bluhm.
