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.

Work injury visit
I am disappointed with the lack of care and consideration I received from this doctor. After returning to work following a work-related injury, I experienced significant pain, which I communicated to him. However, he refused to provide a note for additional time off to fully recover. Despite explaining the discomfort and how it was affecting my ability to perform tasks, my concerns were dismissed. When I sought a second opinion, he seemed insulted rather than understanding of my need to explore all options for proper healing. He said he’s been doing this for 30 years and doesn’t make mistakes. Unfortunately, this has left me feeling unsupported in my recovery process.

Rude and disrespectful
Was very hostile from beginning of appointment, didn't even introduce himself before accusing me of wasting his time. Interrupted me constantly, wouldn't listen, proudly gave me bad medical advice.
