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.

this doctor is so RUDE, i went to him by recommendation but is not worth it, he have 2 specialties, one for pulmonary and the other for internal medicine, i choose him as a internal medicine not pulmonary, my co payment is $35, so every time i went there, they charged me 50, so i called the insurance every time that i was there and they explained to them that way they were billing was incorrect, they need to change their code in order for them to charge correct, but guess what, instead of saying
