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.

Horrible experience.
Was sent to E.R. due to abdominal bleeding by my doctor. Never saw the man. Was sent home and later told by my other doctors I could have died due to this neglect. PAs have no business in an ER setting without the assisting doctor consulting directly with the patient.

Dr Welch is personable and experienced. Spoke to me in terms that I could understand and answered all of my questions. He went out of his way to help me get a new primary doctor. Great experience.
