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.

I was very happy with the results of my leg vein work with Dr. Ives a few years ago. Trying to now come back for the other leg! The visible difference between the two is remarkable.

Fairbanks, AK – Nov 17, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Ives?
During moose hunting in Alaska years before ever meeting Dr. Ives I had herniated a disc in my back. At the time I was advised to exercise and live through the problem as surgical options did not always provide the best outcome. A decade later after considerable pain and agony I made the decision to seek surgery to do anything to improve my condition. The surgeon from out of Fairbanks sent me a 14 page medical history in which I indicated (alert to healthgrades not enough space for story) why?
