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.

Great Doctor, no nonsense professional.

Dr Black always listens carefully to what is said by the patient. He is thorough in checking what the patient needs. He is a doctor who can be trusted for solid advice (and that is not something I say about many doctors).

Dr. Black is a thorough clinician who takes time to engage with his patients, provides comprehensive, understandable explanations, is cautious in his recommendations and has an excellent "bedside" manner. He values the patient's time and provides excellent medical treatment and advice. I am almost 71 and he is the best internists that I have ever had.

Prior to becoming Dr. Black's patient I had a few different doctors. I never truly felt comfortable with them or had faith in their diagnosis, sometimes it seemed like they were guessing. I have complete confidence in Dr. Black. He is both professional and kind. Even though he is the textbook example of punctual, I never felt rushed through an appointment for him to get to his next patient. He's the cream of the crop.
