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.

My father was seen by Dr. Whitaker Bay for diabetic ulcers. When his foot continued to worsen, we then scheduled an appointment with the Mayo Clinic. Only now are we seeing improvement. Dr. Whitaker Bay did not clean, debride, nor treat his ulcers in any way. She simply said that he just needed to keep off of his feet. I do not recommend this doctor due to neglect in care.
