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.

Totally rude and his findings were absolutely absurd.

He was condescending and told me I had no more options than what he had to offer. Wouldn't let me change meds when the side effects where really hurting my health. Told me fat was happy. I put on 50 pounds in less then 2 months...

Unbelievably awful "care," in my opinion. I have always only bothered writing positive reviews, but I would hate to have others experience what I did. He rarely looked at me, complained about time, shrugged and told me that there was, "...no recipe..." for aspects of my case. As a reviewer said, he did smirk and at things that one would find hard to find amusing,hopefully. He was not kind and in fact cold. I got the feeling he lacked skill in a big way. My record had a lot out of context also.

Terrible. Experiance! .This man was condesending and manipulative. Before I walked out, he asked questions of me that he already knew answers to, and just smirked as if was lying If had trouble remembering certain specific dates from years ago! My experience with him reminded me of what it'd be like to be interrogated under the bright lights by Joe Friday himself on Dragnet on a Bad day!
