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 had an appointment and was given a treatment plan but when his billing department decided my insurance may not pay he changed my treatment plan because he didn’t want me to go into collections. That was offensive to say the least. Why would you assume my account would go to collections? I told them I would pay if I had to but still could not be put on schedule. Why is there so much emphasis on billing the insurance unless there is some type of fraud involved? The Dr.'s credibility dropped at that moment for me because he allowed what his benefits department told him to alter the treatment plan he offered me stating he did not know my discretionary income and didn't want to take food off my table but shouldn't I be the one, as the paying patient, decide what I can or cannot afford?

I am disgusted by the most review I read about this doctor. As a veteran and I am highly offended by the comments made by the billing specialist about the insurance offered by the military and the assumption made by Dr. Gardner about the patient's ability to pay the bill. I would NEVER patronize a place who is so disrespectful to those who have defended the freedom of our country!!
