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. Hammett was responsible for saving my life in 1982! I will remember him forever . I was 27, pregnant , & very sick . He was caring, compassionate, and attentive. I had 3 of the 4 types of Tuberculosis & I was pregnant! If not for him, I would be here to adopt my 2 children, & be awaiting the birth of my 5th grandson. I will never forget opening my eyes in recovery after losing my child & seeing his red plaid shirt in my line in sight! It was a comfort to know he was there, caring.
