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.

Update
I am providing this an edit to my previous review. Nothing changed regarding my experience but I would rather use my situation as a case study and learning lesson for the doctors involved in my care. It would have been very hard indeed to diagnose my condition without the genetic testing I had conducted. I was not treated well, but hope that the doctors will read the report that lam sending their way explaining my condition. I have had an extensive career in DNA and forensics. I was an instructor of these topics on an international level during my 13 year career with the Central Intelligence Agency. Further, I have a masters degree in neuropsychology giving me a unique perspective on my condition. For the physicians - you will receive a report from me by the end of the summer.

not worth the wait
Today I had an 11:30 am appointment with Dr. Salgado. At 12:30, I asked the front desk to find out how long it would be, She indicated another 30 minutes. 1.5 hours is far too long to wait in my book. Not worth it - find another doctor.

Very average; nothing special. I had very very bad experience with him returning calls which led to a great worsening of my condition. Loves his frequent vacations. Luckily I found much more knowledgeable doctor who also seems to care.
