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.

Seems knowledgeable. Apparently HATES paperwork
Treated me for a STEMI. Has placed two stents. With that, I have had no concerns about treatment. HOWEVER, I also need FMLA and associated paperwork filled out for my employer due to this condition. He apparently has a problem with this. Like it’s way too much for him to do. (I figure it’s mostly medical assistants who are filling it out, with him signing it). I have supplied a total of 4 pages of leave paperwork, requiring mostly checked boxes and little additional info. I stated I needed a note clearing me to go back to work and he started with “I’ve already filled out…”Maybe you should have picked a different profession, you should be used to paperwork. Part of the job. Get over yourself. Just because you have MD after your name, that doesn’t make you special. Fill out the stupid paperwork or have your minions do it and spend 30 seconds signing it. Other than that irritation, I haven’t had any complaints yet.

If you cannot say something nice about somebody don't say anything at all so about Krista Murphy I have no comment. The only thing I can say is good luck if he is your Dr

Did not answer my questions. Lied to me about the results of tests. . Refused to listen to my complaints. Made false statements on my health record because questions were not asked of me. Ignored information I brought in about my blood pressure. Refused to call my regular doctor about stress test that was positive.
