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. Collins and his staff did not wear COVID virus face masks during my medical visit. Dr. Collins told me he had previously gotten the COVID virus himself and his sickness was no worse than the common "flu". Dr. Collins also told me that the COVID virus was not a problem for me concerning my assertion that getting the COVID virus might cause me to die, accumulate large hospitals bills and/or cause me other chronic health conditions. I am 65 years old, a lifetime smoker and grossly obese. Dr. Collins told me that the only individuals that were at threat for severe-sickness/death from COVID virus were the "over-75" years old aged population in bad health. I believe this "medical provider" is not following good medical practice to protect himself, his staff and his patients from the spread of COVID virus. I have canceled my future medical appointment with Dr. Collins. I would not use this doctor again.
