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.

He is very nice, although he’s all over the place. I think he might have a severe case of ADD. You have to repeat the medicines you need to several times. He’s constantly checking his phone and doing anything but actually checking on the patient. He does not listen and tends to over talk to the patient. Also, he hired his wife to do the billing who has no experience in medical billing whatsoever. I’ve gotten several repeat bills. Even though I had to go to the doctor every month, I would leave and he would forget to call my prescriptions, then almost every time. I would therefore have to be without my medication for days on end until his staff finally prodded him to fill my active prescriptions. Even though I mentioned them While at the doctors visit, and it was my only reason for being there. This did not happen just on one occasion, on multiple occasions. So much so that I decided that I would rather start from scratch with a new doctor it’s the best change I’ve ever made.

I am constantly cut off midsentence, ignored or completely dismissed by this doctor, who is supposed to be my primary care provider. I am lied to. For example he told me he does not prescribed medications that he prescribed to family members. He overbooks and overextends himself to the point that he doesn't remember you. He doesn't pay attention to other medications you take, which led to a seratonin overdose, in which i almost died. If i hadn't figured it out on my own and stopped all medications then I would have. He apparently doesn't believe me when he does hear me out he wouldn't make me wait 2 weeks to a month to be seen for a follow up after an x-ray or MRI. He caused love damage in another family member. I'm close to getting a lawyer but i don't want to be that person. I just want a doctor who will help me.
