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.

Although you couldn’t save my husband, Gary Dietterick, from stage 4 pancreatic cancer….you were just an amazing, compassionate and caring physician. We will always be grateful for having you in our lives for those short 7 weeks. God bless you, Dr. Faroun.
