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 have enjoyed working with Dr. Caldwell and his group.

I have been Dr. Caldwell's patient for 11 years. I have a rare liver disease which he has monitored my condition. I did a drug study & was able to see him every month for 2 years. He stays on top of liver diseases. He is a wonderful, caring doctor & I strongly recommend him to anyone who has a liver disease.

He was very nice to me he told me what he was going to do before he did anything to me. I do not trust to many people but there was something about him that right away I trusted him. I would recommend him to any one. Thank you doc. I hope u will still be there in the 3 years that I got to come back and see you.
