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.

He didn’t ask me any questions about any symptoms that I might be experiencing. Shared with me he had read my previous medical records from another physician. Did not elaborate on what he read. Preceded to ask me if I knew what cirrhosis of the liver was and could I explain it. Then advised me I needed to lose weight and manage my pre-diabetes. Said he would bring it up every time that he saw me in the future. Never once mentioned the issues I’ve had with my pancreas..

After my experience of being humiliated, degraded and belittled by this man I can not recommend him. In the past I have had thyroid cancer and other health problems to cause me to gain weight. I was forced to wait 4 months before being seen and all he did was walk in the room, tell me loose weight, get a lap band done and left with out even examining me. Prior to my visit I had test run and he would not even acknowledge the test when I asked him about them.

Treated me like I was delusional. Didn't care how much pain I've been in, my family history of colon cancer, or my fatigue that is completely debilitating. Haven't had endoscopy in SIX years but insisted since it was fine then, it must be fine now. Was cut short with my concerns and left me in tears. TERRIBLE dr.
