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. OJ is so kind and thorough! I highly recommend him!

Dr. Rustad has been my primary doctor for my basal skin cancer for over 5 years. He always listens to my concerns, makes certain I understand what is going on technically and explains treatment options to me. He checks in with me regarding what choices are available, what course do I want to take, what I can handle and how aggressively I wish to pursue my treatment. His ability to utilize his extensive knowledge in a way that is relevant to my personal situation is reassuring. I always leave his care feeling I am part of a concerned care team.

Assisting staff seems very new and/or poorly trained. And you are likely not to see the same staff there twice, always new people. I prefer someplace with more experienced staff. That high of turnover is a red flag. However, they can get you in quick. Lots of openings whenever you call.
