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.

Highly recommended!
Dr. McLean and NP Morgan Leath have worked with me to help me through many challenges after surgery to repair a large hiatal hernia and gallbladder removal.They continued to adjust my treatment until we were able to find positive results. I am so grateful for their care. I wouldn't hesitate to recom.end them.

Very approachable, caring and competent. Respected my time by getting to me on time and totally prepared. Diagnosed before he prescribed. One of the best doctor interactions I have ever had.

Great experience!
Dr. McClean is extremely respectful, attentive and kind. He offered multiple solutions to my problem and was not dismissive or rushed during the appointment. The other staff on site was fantastic as well. I would recommend Dr. McClean to anyone needing a gastroenterologist.
