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 doctor saved my life. In college I got lupus and was close to death. Medical books said I had a 1 in 4 chance of living 5 years. Well, 36 years later here I am, working, married, and my son just married. Dr. Conaway is worth the wait. He is world class.

I'm very happy with my care. Dr. Conaway is very thorough when going over my test results. He's caring and professional. I'm able to explain and go over all of my concerns with him because he is a good listener and responds to all of my concerns. Happy to have him as my physician.

Please FIND A DIFFERENT Dr. I had bloodwork that specified critical antibodies in Nov 2016. My Primary Care is also associated with Carolina Health Specialist as is Dr. Conaway. It took 4 months to get my Appoint in Feb 2017, Confirmed for no known reason they canceled my Appoint. Did not seem to care. Unhappily Rescheduled for April 2017. Confirmed and guess what they CANCELLED AGAIN! Six months and no Appoint. UNBELIEVABLE!!! A good Rheumatologist is tough to find. Beware of this one!
