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 have had diabeties since 2012. No doctor would help me properly. They just kept throwing insulin at me and not helping me. Since March, Dr. Zapata has gotten me from 12.1 A1C to a 6 A1C. That's March to June. He has the knowledge to help you. He is a little hard to understand behind a mask, but if you listen and concentrate you will understand. He will fill you with knowledge and is really helpful. I know this man has saved my life!
