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.

Dr Dougherty is the most professional and honest Doctor I have ever had. Gets right to the point and doesn’t beat around the bush about your condition. He has been treating me for two forms of cancer for several months. And I am pleased as well as Dr Dougherty that I have reached remission after Chemotherapy treatments. He has given me and my family a new lease on life. There isn’t a better Doctor for cancer treatment than Dr Dougherty. Thank You the Bauman

Dr. Dougherty is forward thinking and takes time to learn about your individual situation. He answers questions with patience and detail, and works with you to create a plan that makes sense. I have felt encouraged at every step to investigate and learn more. I haven’t come across another doctor like him in Buffalo.
