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.

Negligent doctor . I filed a complaint .
He doesn’t care about his patients just collecting a paycheck . I went in for a skin check and he failed to check my whole body . He only looked at 25% patted me in the back and said your fine . He did not follow medical procedures . I filed a complaint with the state of Michigan , BCBS and Henry Ford. Stay away .

Very disappointed in my care
My visit this morning was a waste of time and I will have to repeat this visit with another provider. I waited an hour, he spent over 5 minutes making assumptions about my health issues by reading my meds (all incorrect) instead of looking at my health history, then 3 minutes of an “exam.” I have a significant history of UV exposure, and atypical and precancerous moles. I have had great dermatologists in the past who have acknowledged my risk and had strong recommendations I continue to have comprehensive skin checks every 3-6 months, especially if develop new moles or they change. I have a number of growths that meet this description, of which this provider did not even get within 12 inches of. I requested he use the magnifying device and he said he “had good eyesight.” My exam was not comprehensive enough to even rule out possible atypical growths. Was clearly uncomfortable when I asked him to look at the abnormal moles on my buttocks. Disappointing and useless.
