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 Velar has saved my life. I’ve had kidney failure for the past 5 years and he has been the only Dr to figure out my condition. He’s always on top of my things. Amazing care for patients, very caring and passionate for what he does.

Dr. Velar saved my father's life. We were vacationing in FL, and he had emergency gall bladder surgery. Dr. Velar was consulted as my dad has kidney issues. Dr. Velar continued to consult for the 40 days that my dad was in/out of the hospital, going far beyond the scope of his responsibility to nephrology, & always cared for my father considering all aspects of medicine. My father was overmedicated, and Dr. Velar caught the error & had me turn the car around & go to the ER. Saved his life!
