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.

Lawsuits
Dr. Tarantino seems to have many lawsuits pending. He was found guilty of defaming another local doctor! Should resign.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Tarantino?
Dr. Tarantino was one of the most arrogant and condescending physicians I have ever encountered. He has horrible bedside manner and seems to only care about his financial gain. I would not recommend anyone to him for care.
