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.

My experience with Dr. Sylvest was HORRIBLE!!!! He was very LOUD, RUDE, INSENSITIVE and UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! I would NEVER recommend him to ANYONE!!! Even if he were the last person on this earth to treat you, you'd be better off driving to another Country/Continent and letting a kid pretend to be a Dr. than be subject to his RUDENESS!! I would give him a ZERO ? rating if I could! I know that everyone's entitled to their OWN OPINION and this is mine.
