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.

The wait time to get an appointment was so long, I sort of forgot why I wanted to see the specialist. I deeply appreciate that he was well prepared, having reviewed in detail what we talked about on the previous appointment years ago. I would have felt better had he addressed my new concerns in more detail.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Claman?
This provider was very nice in person but any tests or sleep study results were unavailable in between appointments. It's very difficult to get in for an appointment and he was unable to get me a sleep study result from February. It's June and I still don't have the results. I've contacted the office multiple times. I needed to know the results to know how much oxygen I need at night. I only got the oxygen prescription because I was hospitalized in April and found out in the hospital. Turns out I need quite a bit at night. Who knew? He did. Did he tell me? No.
