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.

He did a good job on my surgery, but his bedside manner is the absolute worst!!! I actually almost reported him to the board of medicine for some of the awful things he said to me….he was downright abusive with his words, which definitely affected my recovery.

None better. What more can you say about a man who saved me at 50 years of age with a workplace Traumatic Brain Injury. I smashed the back of my head on concrete like Humpty Dumpty. I don't remember anything, except waking up alive days later. I am forever grateful for his skills, and pray for his continued success in bringing people back to life, and their families!
