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.

Beware the doctor and his redhead nurse make up stories about their patients and accuse them of being drug addicts. They never examined me as a first time patient, just asked questions and made up stories. You will be at serious risk if you see this doctor or his nurse. They both are incompetent!! After 2 I have had 2 spinal surgeries and he refused to do an MRI. Says I have to go to physical therapy for 6 weeks first to justify an MRI. That’s crazy, after you’ve had 2 back surgeries and the surgeon that did my procedure (in California - much more knowledgeable and know what they are doing) told me to never do physical therapy because it will make me much worse. Patients beware!!!
