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.

Worst Doctor
Blames the patient for his scheduling issues! His bedside manner is awful, barely understand what he's saying half the time. He took me off medicine for anxiety, turns around and says I don't need it and why would I want it, it's as bad as having cocaine in my home! How dare he play with others health. I stopped seeing him years ago, but unfortunately my family members still deal with his horrible bedside manner.
