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.

Doctor clinch did my gastric bypass surgery over twenty five years ago. I absolutely felt confident that he was the right choice for me.He took every precaution to insure I was healthy enough to have rhe surgery. Follow up appointments went very well. I would do it all again under his care.

I want to make sure it is known that Dr. Clinch is a terrific doctor and very great to work with. I would recommend him a 100 times over. HOWEVER, his nurse Kathy Bates, is totally ridiculous. No way is she professional nor caring. She is NOT a doctor and thinks she can tell others how they feel when she has no idea and even lied on paper work before the surgery. She is a horrible person. I hope nothing but the absolute worst for her. I wish I could leave negative stars for her patheticness.
