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 man and doctor. Explanations are understandable and he understands the difficulties that his patients might have following his prescriptions to letter. Understand, caring, professional.

I've been under his care for the past 7 years, he has been a fine doctor that kept me going till my liver transplant on November 2018, with his team at Methodist Transplant Center has given me more years to my life, I'm very grateful.

Staff is absolutely unacceptable - they will go days without responding to telephone calls, they are very hard to understand, give incorrect instructions,and make mistakes that you have to figure out. It is also impossible to talk to the doctor if you are not there for an appointment.
