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.

Such a kind man! so fortunate to have had him as my oncologist!

Dr. Cherny--good at diagnosing my platelet problem and monitoring ever since the mid 80's. When I was in the hospital he still was able to monitor it by sending a colleague to the hospital.

They sent her home on the 28th still sick, vomiting, fever of 102.1, with influenza a, and she ended up passing out behind the wheel of her car and having a head on automobile crash. She was rushed to Crouse and luckily is recovering slowly. I am having a hard time grasping WHY her doctor would send her away in that condition and 100% blame and his whole practice for this. This was avoidable in so many ways. Beyond poor care.
