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.

Dr. Samuel is knowledgeable and cares about his patients. God and Dr. Samuel is the reason I’m still living. Dr. Samuel don’t sugar coat nothing. He tells you what you need to do, to live healthy

It's been a long time since a doctor took the time to really talk to me. More important than that was the fact that he actually listened to my concerns and addressed them completely. He took a lot of time and answered all my questions. I found him to be a very compassionate doctor.

Though he may be brain smart - he has a HORRIBLE bedside manner! He yelled at my husband and I. He told us he HATES Nurse Practitioners. He was rude and his behavior and demeanor was very unprofessional! I would avoid him AT ALL COSTS!!!

Dr. Samuel is a truly heartfelt doctor. He deeply cares about each patient. He listens intently on what the patient has to say. He gives you his undivided attention. He give you his thoughts on your tests and condition and constructive ways to help. He is a very unique doctor in this world of doctors rushing in and out in 5 minutes. You never have to worry about Dr. Samuel doing what other doctors do for insurance money. He reminds me of my uncle who was still making house calls in the 80s.
