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.

It's been 19 years since I've seen Dr. Garretson. Have seen several in between, but none nearly as good as Dr. G. He finds what is wrong, explains it well, and appears to be a scientist, apparently a rare quality among doctors. I would not hesitate to recommend him to a friend.
