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. Foster is a very caring physician. He listens to your concerns and makes you feel at ease.

Dr Foster is an outstanding clinician and surgeon. He is truly talented in his field and has been dealing with my circulatory issues for more than 10 years. He actually gave me "new legs".....and for a dancer, this is a HUGE deal for which I will be eternally grateful.
