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.

Where are you when I need you???
have spent weeks trying to get a prescription renewed. He has not responded via his call center or appeals through his customer care supervisor. I am left searching for a new doctor to get prescription renewal as he will not respond. Although i like him, being unable to get him to respond is a deal breaker and I will be filing a complaint with the Arizona medical board. So disappointing!

A Real doctor that actually cares
I am a fairly new patient to the clinic but that did not prevent Dr. Laven from getting involved. He personally called me a couple of times to make sure that I was okay and that I understood what was going on. He made sure that I received the medical equipment that I needed and followed up with me to see how it was working. He has a level of care and compassion that many doctors don’t.

Listens, analyzes and treated me as a system
I have had several appointments with Dr Laven (DO). I am 70 and on none of the normal meds .. actually only take an inhaler daily for asthma. I did a stress test physical. Dr Laven looked at the numbers, looked at me, my history and made some suggestions. Some numbers were marginal, but his view was .. lets watch and oh .. you are working out/dieting. I am down 33 lbs (13%) since jan 1 of this year. Finally a doctor that listens and looks at the whole system (body).
