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.

Rude, Unhelpful
I was surprisingly discharged from the hospital with no answers to my arms being in extreme pain and not being usable. I was scared and asked what I was supposed to do - asking if I could drive? Work? Was it safe, seeing as I didn't have much control of my arms? I was given no limitations or support. He told me, and I quote that I would have to 'Just figure it out.' He told me to take an Uber to work). When I asked about notes in my chart pointing at a narrowed blood vessel in my neck that was stated in my chart as a possible stroke symptom, he got angry and yelled 'well we could just go in there and do an unnecessary surgery that could cause a stroke - want to do that?' I didn't know what to do or think, so I just left the hospital in tears. This grown man 'doctor' is yelling at me, telling me he can't do anything for me (mind you - arms still in extreme pain and I have no control over them) and telling me to go figure it out. He should not have a medical license.
