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.

Very thorough, follows thru to results
Dr. Lipman was very attentive and listened to my concerns . He was very thorough in testing to find diagnosis. Post appt, Dr. Lipman called me to discuss test results, address my concerns, and provide a plan for moving forward. Love the care I receive from Dr. Lipman, and his staff is awesome too.

I have been seeing Dr. Lipman for decades. He used to be a very compassionate and caring doctor, who took the time to visit with his patients. I was shocked by the treatment I received recently at a visit. He talked to the computer more than he did to me. He came off as very arrogant and egotistical. He is a very skilled and knowledgeable ENT specialist, however, treating a patient involves recognizing the patient is a human being! I miss the old Dr. Sidney Lipman. Doubtful I will return.
