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. Tom is the best!

Dr Tom Has been taking care of me for the past 18 years. When I was having issues and ultimately needed surgery I knew was in excellent hands. He is compassionate and goes above and beyond to explain everything including alternative treatments to surgery. His staff is excellent and responds to questions INCREDIBLY fast. I can’t recommend Dr Tom enough

He was great staff was incompetent and instead of fact no their mistakes they passed the buck. Didn't take responsibility for their actions and canceled service right before the treatment should of taken place not to mention leave the patient on pain..
