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.

This doctor is not pro-veterans. Demeaning!
I, being the 30-year U.S. Navy Veteran that I am, was completely confounded with the way in which Dr. Smith would talk down to me. Not only that, but his misdiagnosis of my PTSD was incredibly frustrating. My sisters have seen this doctor, and this doctor has a history of corruption. He pill-pushes, and also has a history of infractions within the medical community. And on top of all that, he overcharged me!
