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.

A great doctor
Dr Emmons is a bright and shining star within the U of L Health System. We learned more from him in 1 hour than we've learned from any of the other doctors. He took his time with us and answered all of our questions and concerns. We would not hesitate to go to him again.

He has been a most wonderful and compasionate Doctor, He is full of empathy and understanding and goes out of his way to meet his patients needs and makes sure the patient understands all the options available, listens patiently to all the questions and concerns and rules out all other possibilities before starting a treatment! I have been seeing him for two years and it took me 11 years to finally find somebody that not only writes me a prescription, but it's the BEST for me!
