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.

Staff is rude and unhelpful You can’t get a prescription filled without a call to the office manager and she’s even worthless! Stay away!!!!!!!

Dr. Newman was very thorough and personable during my visit. He took the time to explain what he was doing and what the tests showed. His staff was helpful, friendly and polite. I would highly recommend his care.
