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 was diagnosed with a thyroid tumor six months ago. I placed over 10 calls and waited months for an appointment and then was told it would need to be rescheduled due to the COVID shutdown once I finally got a coveted appointment. I was told someone would follow up with me in June and no one ever did. I have moved across the country since then and now have to start all over. I am absolutely disgusted.

I was not treated well using proper follow up medical procedures that can be classified as misdiagnosis. I will choose another well experienced caring Endocrinologist. I wont recommend.
