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 was very condescending, arrogant and dismissive when he saw us for my childs heart issue. Another Dr had given us his opinion on the issue when we came to the ER, and dr becker told us something different the next day, and that my child probably has had this when clearly, per 2 other Cardiologist they explained what the issue is, and why. We will not follow up with him, nor would I refer him to anyone. After all this, we have heard from very reputable sources that he is this way to everyone.
