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 Petsche and his staff run a tight ship. Office visits are on time and the communications are clear and concise. I’ve had 3 successful surgeries preformed by Dr Petsche. I would definitely recommend Dr Petsche to my family and friends.Hopefully I won’t need his services again for a long time. Thank you.
