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.Munford is the best surgeon in Cedar City and the only one I trust. Always very courteous and knowledgeable. He explains things well and does a great job addressing all concerns.

Not recommended. Saw this doctor for a routine colonoscopy. History completed one week before surgery indicated a history of colonoscopies with cancer noted 20 years previous. Before procedure he asked if I had ever had a colonoscopy which to me was a clear indication he had not read my paperwork. After removing 2 polyps he asked after surgery if I had ever had part of my colon removed. You'd think he would have known after being in there. Took 16 days to receive biopsy results by mail.
