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.

I believe the core components of any "helping relationship " , especially that of a surgeon and his patient, are empathy, geniouness and respect. When I did not heal or be pain free after extensive foot surgery by this doctor in the time frame he set forth, he became accusatory, disengenuine, dishonest and exhibited a complete lack of empathy. Even after I requested further testing to determine the cause of the worsening pain long after surgery, he declined to do so. Find a different doctor
