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.

Failed hernia surgery
Doctor seemed annoyed by my questions prior to surgery. Performed umbilical hernia mesh repair surgery several years ago. Recently had a MRI that showed I still have the hernia in disrepair. Now contacting ANOTHER surgeon to discuss options. Do not recommend!

After the surgery she seemed like she didn't wanna be bothered by me any longer. I developed congestion and a bad cough and it was causing much more pain where she repaired the hernia, but every time I called for advice she sent me the run around. Call ur regular physician... He was out of town, OK go to an emergency clinic. They can look at the sight of the hernia there. I'm now in horrific pain, and am out of meds, plus I have a terrible cough and congestion. She wont give me the time of day.
