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.

Should lose his license
Took my 83 year old mother off her blood pressure medication because her blood pressure readings were good (same reason you stop carrying an umbrella when you don't get wet in rain, amiright?) and because--verbatim quote--"they don't do nothin'" Within weeks she had a life altering ischemic event. Then we couldn't get a callback. If I could sue him into the ground I would. Don't confuse his aw-shucks good ole boy act with caring medical competence.

I am very uncomfortable with doctors due some really bad experiences. Dr. Hess immediately makes you feel comfortable with his easy yet extremely knowledgeable demeanor. Best Doctor I have ever seen.
