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.

Discharge from hospital
Dr. Ricky was my discharge doctor for Medical Park Hospital today and all I have to say is he needs to learn some bedside manners, empathy & to be gentle with his patients. From the moment he walked in, he seemed very rushed and stated that he had been doing surgeries since 10 am the day before. He immediately removed my bandages abruptly, where I had just had a hernia removed and an ostomy reversal. I have a pretty large open wound that needs to be packed twice a day. He removed the dressing so fast and started poking his fingers inside of my open wound with no consideration or concern to my pain and discomfort. He shoved the bloody dressing right back in without even going into the corners that were the deepest, & properly securing the dressing like it should be! When I asked him if I could take a shower, his comment was sarcastic and said . ‘’ Please do! He sent me home in pain & in tears. I work in the medical field as well, & DO NOT recommend him at all!!
