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.

Terrible provider who does not care
I am having continued problems after surgery in January. I have spoken to other doctors and explained what might work to no avail. This practice is not worth it. I would rather spend the day in Pittsburgh instead.

What could be improved
  • I didn't feel respected
  • Didn't listen or answer questions

I had the 360 Nissen. Her and her team are amazing. She did it robotically. She takes so much time with her patients and care and is an amazing surgeon. I would recommend her to anyone.

I had my first appt. with Dr. Newhams today (11-13) I was very pleased with the time she took to explain the tests I will be having done. I am thinking the future visits will go just as well as the first. Today I finally felt relief that Dr. Newhams will be able to find the root of my troubles.
