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.

While Dr. Ayer was over 30 minutes late for our appointment I understood he was with another patient and knew he would provide me the same attention. He did! This was one of the best appointment experiences I've had in years. He was surprisingly knowledgeable about my rare brain disease and offered a solid plan moving forward. He was no-nonsense and direct but with enough compassion that it wasn't shocking. I appreciated his entire vibe. He's an absolute treasure and I hope Legacy knows how fortunate it is to have him.
