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. Thompson has been my doctor for over 25 years. He's been incredible at being proactive which seems unusual in the medical profession. Among other things, he's shared with me the importance of fiber, of reducing carbs, getting a continuous 20 minutes of at a minimum mild exercise daily. When I've had health issues, he's either figured them out or sent me to top professionals. I'm nearly 64 and on no meds. I've thanked him for his advice and he's responded that I've listened. After each physical, he sits down with me in his office and goes over the results in detail. I have NEVER felt rushed. My average wait time for an appointment is about 5 minutes, incredibly quick. He gets my best review because he's earned it!
