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. Karl is the best surgeon in the desert! He is very kind, patient, and an outstanding surgeon. He saved my life! I wish there were more doctors like him.

Dr. Schulz has done two hernia surgeries, both with excellent results. On the first one, he took extra time to explain everything to me exactly what he was going to do, why it was necessary, and what to expect. A year and a half later, I had the other side done. This time, he knew that I knew what to expect so the pre-op appointment was quite a bit shorter. I am totally satisfied with Dr. Schulz. He is a skillful surgeon and the results are great.
