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.

I had a phone consult with Dr. Medlin and he was very personable, kind and explained everything carefully. My questions were answered and I did not feel rushed. I look forward to meeting with him in person.

My phone consultation (that I paid for upfront) lasted 14 minutes. It was obvious the doc needed to do something else- he was distracted, rude, and impatient. The consultation ended when Dr. Medlin hung up on me. Do not recommend.

I went in for kidney stones I had been fighting for 3 weeks. I was looking to get a CT to see where they were, he dismissed this idea as"pointless" he then says" we get the CT and then what? We can't do any thing for you". Very dismissive and condescending

Dr. Medlin was focused on only one particular thing instead of taking all things into consideration. He was knowledgable, but felt he jumped around making him hard to follow. The BIG downfall was his office staff at The BMI clinic. They were very unorganized, uneducated in the process & some were plain rude.
