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 have seen 4 Rheumatologists before seeing Dr. Shearman and they all said that they couldn't help me. Dr. Shearman listened to what I was experiencing and worked to help me. I know have a diagnosis and am on medication that has really taken away my pain. I highly recommend him.
