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.

Wonderful caring physician.

Dr. Carmody was great. He answered my questions even before I asked them. He was very thorough, and had already read my chart before he came in the room. That is a plus, plus. On a scale of 1 to 10. He's 20.

He is kind and compassionate, as well as a stellar doctor! After years without diagnosis of a major and life-threatening issue, Dr. Carmody provided answers to our family that numerous doctors from great hospitals in multiple states could not. He takes a great interest in his patients and their history. My sick family member is under the best care there is with Dr. Carmody! We are eternally grateful for his amazing expertise and insight. His unique bedside manner should be an example for others to aspire to achieve and was a great comfort at a very difficult time for us

Excellent, personable, non-judgmental care for bariatric patients. Excellent support staff. Dr. Carmody made sure to answer all of my questions. I was well prepared for surgery and had realistic expectations for recovery. His office continues to be a source of support for me. Highly recommend for anyone considering bariatric surgery.

He goes up and above for surgically procedures, its taken me longer to heal then most patients. At first I was really upset about the length but I"m almost done and it has been worth the wait. I have been healing about 5 months, but that's not typical at all. I have had previous hernia surgeries, but I know that unlike the past hernias, this once probably wouldn't return. This doctor got me connected to a home health agency unlike previous doctors, so it has been a good recovery.

The BEST surgeon EVER!!! He truly treats me like family. Every time I was admitted to the hospital Dr. Carmody was there to check on me, and see what he and his staff could do to help me. Even after he had completed my surgery. Most surgeons when they operate on you... you will not see them again not even on a follow-up visit. Dr. Carmody is one of a kind! I trust him! He gave me another chance at life!!!!
