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.

Dr.Cavell and his entire staff has made my life worth living again. I was blessed when I found Dr. Cavell after 4 years of suffering. He listened and spent the time to understand my needs and helped me with Medication assistance. I recommend he and his staff to everyone who is in need. I'm Charles Taylor proud to sign my name.

I was very displeased..I have so many symptoms and have suffered for so long..I have had 2 speckled ANAs..he totally ignored my symptoms and my blood work..he tried to convince me I was depressed which is not a problem and then acted like he didn’t even believe me..At the end he made the comment that he didn’t know what was wrong with me..I went there for hope that I might finally get some answers and was totally blown off..I hope he never has any family members that are treated this poorly
