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 Haney
I am so thankful for the amazing team of nurses and doctors that took care of me yesterday. The care provided was simply above and beyond.

Dr Haney is a brilliant surgeon and we so lucky to have someone in this area with his abilities. Thank you Dr Haney and twin cities !

Attentive and concerned about your health.
Clearly explained procedure and results of intended gallbladder removal operation. Although procedure was intended to be performed laparoscopically, possibility of abdominal surgical incision remained. Even though the gallbladder was heavily infected, Dr was able to remove it as originally intended. Analysing the situation after the fact, it was clear that thanks to the Dr's surgical skills and knowledge, my life was potentially saved. The follow up surgical care was exceptional with one of the best bedside manners I have experienced.

I owe a world of graditude to Dr Haney. He has followed up with me, monitoring growths on my pancreas and benign tumor areas removed from my colon... He is intelligent, caring and very good at answering questions where it is understandable. He has sent me letters jist to follow up with upcoming procedures when I was out of touch and called me personally to let me know test results on my biopsies. This Doctor really cares. His staff sometimes keeps you waiting, and you might have to call back to get appointments, but its because they stay busy. They take care of my referals to hospitals, remind me before i leave about appointments and always offer kindness. Be patient getting in, its worth it for your health to have Dr Haney in your corner.

I have been seeing Dr Haney for almost 10 years, and he is always kind, courteous and professional. He is very thorough, and always answers questions. I think he is the most observant of all the Doctors I see, and it's a lot. He always notices if something is off, things that aren't even related to why I see him. That's part of why I think he is an amazing Doctor, and person

Dr. Haney removed my thyroid gland on 9/4/2018. Dr. Haney fully explained the procedure. He is a warm and caring surgeon and took every opportunity to put me and my family at ease while at the same time informing me of the risks involved. The surgery was performed without incident.

Awesome experience. He is patient and listened to all concerns and curiosities I had. Answered all questions to full satisfaction. Surgery was a breeze. Only 3 1/2 weeks after surgery but I've followed all post-op instructions and I am thrilled with the results so far. Follow up visit was great. I have already recommended him to two people in need of his services.

In Feb 2017, I had a bilateral hernia repair. I can't say enough about Dr Haney's skills and abilities. He told me exactly what he was going to do and that is what he did. I was sleeping during the surgery but as I write this I'm five days out of surgery and am doing just fine. A little tender, but out shopping and to dinner with my wife tonight. I can't say enough about this guy, he is tops in his field.

I will start by saying Dr. Haney is a very good surgeon. The problem is getting an appointment with him before you die. His office received a referral for my case on Thursday and I was told by his office I have to wait for them to call me to schedule an appt. I have called twice and explained I am having pain but have still not been able to get an appointment scheduled. Today is Wednesday the following week and still no call for an appointment date. Im schedule elsewhere. Thanks anyway
