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.

Super happy with my care!
Dr. Martin is a very skilled and caring surgeon which is a combination I have not always found in surgeons. He explained everything well, took his time with me. He was caring when I encountered a problem in the hospital and patient in explaining things to my family. I am so pleased that my PCP referred me to him!

Trust, Confidence, and Critical Thinking
Great. Saw Dr. Martin for multiple visits and operations. Each time he explained the risk and rewards surgery could offer thoroughly. Very thoughtful and is willing to think outside the box when an immediate solution is not available. He also spends time with each appointment, rather than rushing from each appointment possibly missing critical information. While also, at the same time, building trust and confidence between the patient and doctor. Thank you.

The experience was cold and useless to my health and well-being. It was very expensive with this doctor's consultation. The medical team he supposedly set me up with never called with a follow up appointment.
