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.

Another line of work would be suitable for the majority of the people working there. The Nurse Practitioner Ms. Pericano was pleasant but did not fully understand my problems. I have NOT even seen Dr. Lipton one time in the 8 or so times that I been there. I am 74 years old. I have had a hard time breathing since September, no energy, general weakness, and I have had two heart attacks in the last 8 years. Dr. Lipton won't even see me. It took months to get a referral (I had to ask) from nurse.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Lipton?
I have several health conditions. I relocated to Palm Springs from San Clemente. I was with my previous primary for 15 years. Plus a cardiologist and pulmonologist. It was extremely frightening changing doctors after building not only a professional relationship but also a personal one of trust, emotional and compassion. Dr. Lipton has the potential of being all of those to me. This was my first appointment, I left feeling good.
