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.

Always kind and helpful

I don't think he was thorough enough about his analysis and he definitely didn't have an "listening ear" for my problem.

Good visit for a checkup. The most recent visit the provider was very personable and totally different than my first visit with him (much improved...might have been just having a overly stressful day before)

The first time the dr told me there was no stone in my gland. After 2 more episodes of swelling, pain, being unable to swallow; a stone came thru the saliva gland under my tounge causing severe pain, numbness and distress. The first dr I saw for this condition had told me there was, Roche said there was not untill I brought a part of it to him and asked if he could remove the gland.

He was an hour late and gave me no apology or reason. This appointment was the quickest one I have had with him and felt very unpersonalized.
