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.

Definitely wouldn't choose him
In my experience with him in the ER he had bad bedside manner, the expression on his face (furrowed brows) and his body language is nothing like his picture which depicts him as being friendly. Overall he seemed very irritated that he even had to talk to me and it seemed personal despite it being my first interaction with him. I saw him twice through-out my stay and he made me very uncomfortable with both, so much so I didn't really feel comfortable asking questions. Come to think of it the only pleasantries that were exchanged were after I told him it was nice meeting him which was the only time his expression lightened a bit and he replied 'good to meet you' and left. I can only imagine being a doctor in a busy ER cant be easy but I felt like it was being taken out on me a bit which isn't a good feeling when you're normally in the ER because you aren't feeling well.

Impressed!
He took time to sit down and talk to me about what was going on. He showed me all the tests on his phone so I could follow along, and answered all my questions. I felt safe returning home from the ER that night.The nicest ER doctor, that I have met!

-10 if that were an option
This man’s bedside manner directly contradicts “do no harm.” Needs immense education in mental health and needs to learn a non-judgmental stance. Emotionally damaged my daughter.
