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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Epstein?
I write this on behalf of my friend who passed but was treated by Dr. Epstein. I spent everyday at the hospital and became genuinely fond of him for the care he provided my dearest friend. He took the time to explain, treated her with kid gloves and she never felt the pain that was ravishing her body. He balanced pain management with quality of life, not an easy task. Thank you
