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.

Caring and Knowledgeable
During my 24 years in the military medical system and then an equal number of years in the civilian medical system, I can only guess at the number of medical personnel I have seen. My experience with Dr. Aboye has been outstanding. I began seeing Dr. Aboye over six (6) years ago. Today was my annual check-up. When I entered Dr. Aboye’s office, he welcomed me. His words and body language showed he genuinely cares for my well-being. He takes the TIME to LISTEN to my concerns, closely look at the data, and discuss relevant items. He scrutinized a list I brought of supplements I was taking and pointed out a likely reason for a high reading on one of my blood tests. The pressure must be enormous to meet certain “production performance criteria” within a large bureaucratic system, such as the VA. Yet, during the entire time in his office, I not once felt like I was “just a number.” Spending this valuable time with Dr. Aboye was a very positive experience.
