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.

Mean nurses
I called his office tell someone, anyone that I was having a hard time breathing. She told me to call my primary and hung up. I'm searching for a new cardiologist.

He was absolutely fantastic. I was having a stress test done. He explained everything to me before we started. He carefully monitored me during the procedure. Once the procedure was done, he went over the findings with me, explains medical condition and told me what I needed to follow up with. He listens and answers questions fully. He is a wonderful, kind, and caring person and a great diagnostician and physician.
