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. David Long is compassionate and caring.
He took excellent care of my mom while she was in the hospital and afterwards while she was in rehab. Dr. David Long checked on her daily and reported to family members her progress. I trust Dr. Long, and I knew he was doing the best he could caring for her.

Outstanding doctor
Dr Long took care of my Mother for many years. He always listened and responded promptly and appropriately. So gentle and kind. Now he is my and my husband’s doctor. Can always get an appointment quickly. We couldn’t have a better doctor here in St Petersburg. And when we engage with other specialists, they all have so much respect for him. Doesn’t get any better than that!

Dr Long has been my Primary Care Doctor since 2005. He has been there for me through several major issues. He works closely with my Cardiologist to insure my overall well being. I highly recommend him and his staff of Judy and Caroline. Outstanding provider.

1st appointment: over 40 minutes. Great questions and bedside manner. Felt heard and understood. Arranges to see you when you need to be seen. Staff seems happy and professional. Plus: St A’s as well as Palms. I finally found a great Primary!

Not a very caring and considerate individual. Strictly business. There is more to medicine than being a physician. This Doctor is not recommended when treating the elderly!
