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 Catinchi saved my life about 30 years ago. If I still lived in Miami he would still be my Dr. He deserves way more than five stars.

The dr is professional with me but the staff is just down right rotten. The dr's wife is the office manager and find her really mean and rude. If you go here sit outside and avoid the stupid small talk the staff makes. The staff likes to break confidentiality and talk about any patient for anyone to hear. Office manager and staff should brush up on privacy laws.
