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.

Great experience
I recently moved to Aiken & I’m a colon cancer survivor. I still need to be followed & checked every year. My experience with Dr. Hammond was fabulous. She takes an extreme amount of time listening & explaining things. I had a colonoscopy at the hospital which was a very good experience. She was on time & her staff is very efficient & extremely nice & make you feel very comfortable. I will keep her as my doctor & would highly recommend her.

I love Dr Hammond she is the best surgeon ever. She is trustworthy and just amazing. I'm truly going to miss her. She shows great compassion for her patients. She saved my life by giving me a lieostostmy in 2012 then in December it was suppose to be reversed. When she got in there it wasn't time she had great compassion when she told my parents and me. Then in May 2013 it was reversed. I have seen her three years now still bag free.

Dr. Hammond has been a wonderful Dictor. She has always been professional with a great bedside manner. I'll eventually have to have surgery again one day soon and I can honestly say I feel extremely comfortable with Dr. Hammond as that Doctor!
