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. Villar thought it was best to let our family member go. Stating he had TWO other patients w similar cases. The likelyhood of our relative coming out of a coma was slim. Said he wouldn't live the same "vibrancy" as he had before. As i lay here thinking of our experience w Dr Julian Villar I thought to myself...our relatives vibrancy after waking from the coma could be more than other who have never been in one. In otherwords even without restored 100 personality patient is still mkre vibrant than many others. I dont agree w the Drs tactics to pressure you to let the patient go. He stepped towards me in rounds and it felt he was trying to imtimidate me. He compared our relative to ONLY TWO other patients. Not enough data. I do not reccomend Dr Villar. Our experience as a family was a bad one w him.
