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 been his patent for 9 years now and I have to say This Dr is by far the best ! Dr. Brierre is very comforting in treating my cancer. He is welcoming and really listens to all of my concerns and treats not only the disease but the patient ….He does not sugar coat the possibilities but encouraged positivity which is a breath of fresh air…. He always considers me and how I approach treatments. He is such a blessing!

I am a "Survivor:!!! I give a lot of credit to Dr. Brierre who did not give up on this "Senior", but was so patient and kind and gave me what was needed to achieve this "Survivor" status. Dr. Brierre was so on top of my reactions to Chemo, allowed me to keep taking it when I could and knew when we had to stop, to prevent neuropathy. His PA, Erik, and all the staff, are so kind and patient. They do make a bad experience a happy one when you are there receiving treatments.
