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 Braverman is a true doctor and he is never in a rush when you have an appointment. He really listens and has a compassionat personality.

Dr. Braverman is an expert in his field and well versed in anything surgical. He has a great, calm, friendly demeanor which makes him very approachable and easy to talk to. I felt very at ease placing my trust in him. He's performed Lapband surgery for me & has been very supportive. Please ask him anything...he knows the answers.

I am a certified operating room Tech. I have worked with bariatric surgeons for over 15 when I saw Dr Braverman operate I knew he was the doctor for me. I received excellent care all my questions were answered and less than six months later I am within 20 pounds of my target weight.
