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.

I suffered from an infection for 2 1/2 years following his surgery. He did very little to treat it. After 2 1/2 years of being infected and in pain, he thought surgery would be the best. Because my insurance did not cover the hospital which he wanted to use, I was told I had to pay all hospital expenses. It seemed to me that because he was directly responsible for his negligence, he should be paying the hospital expenses. I said no to him. I was not paying to fix his incompetent and negligent practice. I found another surgeon who performed surgery. I am still in pain, although no longer infected. I will have to have additional surgery to correct what he so thoroughly mangled. Never, ever again. It appears he doesn't know or care about the procedures and the outcomes.
