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 was very happy with DrDratler and his staff.
He took his time and came to house which I loved. I was asked lots of questions to determine my needs. Sent lab people the next day filled all my scripts. Will return to see me again. I was impressed. I received much better care then my past doctor that didn’t know my name.

The most amazing doctor around He does house calls
Spent a very very long time with me and my family. Answered all of my questions. His staff was amazing and got back to us immediately. He comes right to my home and sits with me along with his nurse and actually listened to everything that I had to say.

Horrible, neglectful doctor
I told the doctor for more than 2 months my mom may have skin cancer on her ankle. He ignored me and her treated for a diabetic wound when she isn't diabetic. Turns out I was right. He let it get so bad she couldn't have it biopsied. And she had to have 30 radiation treatments. The radiologist flinched when he 1st saw my mom's open, weeping cancer growth. There are other things he failed to monitor, such as Coumadin levels which resulted in huge hematomas for my mom. Stay away from this doctor, he should not have a license to practice.
