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.

Who
Haven’t seen him in over a year and a half. He has not communicated with me even though I have reached out to him. He schedules MRI’s whenever I have a question then has a receptionist read a transcript on my MRI. I ask why I am having issues but keep getting the same response the tumor is getting nominally smaller (technical term)? There is more to doctoring then looking at a picture and abandoning the patient.

Had a consultation about a reoccurrence of a pituitary tumor that was removed 15 years ago. The doctor's demeanor and professionalism set my fears to rest. He took his time to show me pictures of the tumor and explain them procedures he will use to treat it. I'm looking forward to having the procedure done in a couple of months.
