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 arrived 30 minutes early, and was taken back to exam room at 9:30 which was my appt time. Unfortunately, I waited 38 minutes Before the doctor came into the exam room. He did apologize. And he did ask all the typical exam questions and testing of body parts that I was there for. When asked what’s next, he mentioned more PT, which I have already had, Shot, which I have had, has never helped. So he ordered a medication. He explained, future treatment options. I’m grateful for his help.
