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'm not a typical patient. I've been to a lot of doctors for this particular condition. It's taken 16 years to have a doctor listen and offer surgery. The doctor was very thorough in describing risks and benefits. I had already considered the consequences of them in the last 16 years. What made this doctor extraordinary, he didn't dismiss me or my concerns or absolutely refuse treatment options.
