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.

'Our visit with Dr. Wallet was very disappointing. He was condescending, arrogant, and seemed to get almost defensive if we questioned anything. This as well as his lack of empathy or concern for our mother while she was in obvious distress is why we cancelled all future dealings with him and found a different doctor. People aren't just numbers, Dr. Wallet.'

I highly recommend Dr. Wallet!
My first visit with Dr. Wallet was excellent! He was warm, friendly, kind, personable and doesn’t have an arrogant bone in his body. He performed my surgery and I even recommended him to my mother when she needed surgery. She is 83 years old and I was with her at her first visit with Dr. Wallet She was blown away by the time he spent with us and the information he shared with us! She went in to her surgery with total confidence in Dr. Wallet. It ended up being a 7 hour surgery but we knew it would be a lengthy surgery. She is recovering nicely.

Dr. Wallet himself is awesome. He is a great doctor. However, one very important thing was left out from my discussion before a procedure. I went in believing this procedure wholeheartedly to be preventative, but apparently if they find anything at all (even a benign polyp), the procedure gets recoded and you're slapped with a $1600+ bill for what should have been free. This is information that I should have been made aware of. Had I been, I would never have agreed to the procedure. Because info
