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.

This Dr Patel person should not even be allowed to use a steak knife let alone a scalpel. He totally destroyed my entire abdominal core and took away my entire quality of life due to not one but 2 totally botched surgeries to repair a simple hernia Because of his lack of knowledge and skill whereby a simple laparoscopic procedure turned into a 14 inch long open cut from my navel to my crotch was done even after i explicitly told him not to do any such thing beforehand. Then he went and tried to staple dead skin only to close me up which caused my whole stomach to burst open one week later and all of that's not even the half of it.
