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. Cardenas is such a good dr. He removed a parathyroid, my thyroid and 2 lipomas on the back of my neck at one time. I got told by 3 other drs. They would have to remove the lipomas separately because I would have to be turned over. Dr. Cardenas made it happen and I'm so relived I didn't have to have separate surgeries. He's definitely an asset to the medical community and he's very knowledgeable. I would absolutely use him again!

Why did he leave Reno, NV?? terrible bed side manner, does not tell the truth, and the worst part: mediocre to poor surgeon. GET A SECOND OPIONION! I know two instances where he did poor work: my wife and one of her friends. DONT TRUST HIM! One star because I can't do NONE! D Bell, Reno, NV
