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.

if I could give half star I would
I couldn't tell you my experience, since I have been calling for the last 2 weeks to get an appointment and I can't get through to anyone in the office, I have tried, all the prompts to see if anyone picks up and NADA!!!. Not even the billing department pretending to pay a bill. No one answers!!!!

Worse answering system I have ever seen
The doctor might be excellent but the system to get a hold of him is the worse I have ever seen. If you think I am exaggerating try calling and you will see. I have literally have gotten in my car and driven there to be able to get an appointment as they wont answer the phone. It is hilarious as am standing in front of the front desk person and complained about this and she tells me they have issues with the phone [and am hearing the phone ring and she wont pick it up]. I am glad I no longer go there and found a regular doctor who answers the phone.

Dr Sandilands is a dedicated, cheerful, emphatic doctor. He goes above and beyond his duties, he reassures his patients and the family, he visits patients regularly at the hospital, he leaves the lines open with patients after they leave the hospital, he insists on personally seeing his patients in his office & he exudes contagious confidence & positivity. His work is excellent, almost miraculous. I highly recommend him.
