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.

To be totally honest, I personally was really surprised that Nurse Ginger and Dr. Saxena took as much time as they did with me. He's a very good physician and my wife and I are very pleased with him. Nurse Ginger is a very good Nurse and is knowledgeable and professional at her job.
