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.

WHEN I VISITED ALON GARAY ON JUNE 4TH, WHEN I HAD MY CAST REMOVED, HE TWISTED MY WRIST SO CRUALLY THAT I WAS IN EXTREME PAIN. WHY?

I don't trust any doctors but I trust and have confidence in Dr. Garay. Over the past two years, he has performed two separate surgical corrections of a 45+ year old injury and resulting surgical repair that gave out after 40 years. He listens, has good humor, is very thorough, is knowledgeable and skilled at what he does.
