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.

Dr Adess treated me for Colorectal Cancer in 2009-2010. Always took time to explain anything we didn’t understand in language that we could understand. But never “talked down” to us! I also have MS and Dr Adess has experience dealing with MS patients which made much more comfortable. I was worried about the effect of Chemo on my MS. Surgery would always set me a few steps back with the MS so I worried that Chemo would put me back more than just a few steps. Dr Adess assured me we would take it slowly until we saw just how things went. After I finished all my Chemo treatments were finished he told me I went through much better than he first thought things would go. I feel I was very Blessed to have found Dr Adess.

Great Bedside Manner but... Not sure he is on top of my care. Doesn't follow thru, didn't visit me in hospital or call. I don't feel he is upfront with patient expectation of treatment. Dr. Adess follows protocol but didn't seem to think outside of the box.
