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.

Dr. Salazer is one of the most brilliant diagnosticians I have ever met. I am his patient, and a registered nurse who has had the privilege to work with him. Dr. Salazer gives 150% to his practice, his patients and his colleagues. His knowledge, his compassion and his experience make him the only physician I would ever consider having as my own. I have referred many family members, friends and colleagues to Dr. Salazer, and I had no doubt that they, too, would speak highly of him.

Been going to see Dr. Thomas Salazer for the past 10 years. He is the most wonderful doctor you can have. But the staff at Nephrology Associates have the worst attitude. They are the nastiest staff I have ever met. They are not at all helpful. They speak down to the patients The reason I have put up with the staff, has been because of Dr. Salazer. But they have push to far. Now they talk nasty to my pharmacist
