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.

I’m on workman comp. And I felt this doctor was more focused on getting me off workman Comp and back into work, rather than focusing on getting my back as close to normal as it possibly get. The whole time he kept referring to “WE” as if he was working for workman compensation and not Ortho Carolina. I was very disappointed and felt my health overall was not the priority of seeing this doctor. Something just didn’t sit well with me and this visit.
