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.

horrible; just horrible - first words out of the receptionist mouth when i said i was a new patient was quote "if you're looking for pain meds contact another doctor" really that's how you talk to someone before you even know why i'm calling - doctor won't answer my questions, says wait for the blood work - blood work comes back and all i get is cholesteral is a little high, change your diet; what about the growth and my feet - quote, "sorry don't know what to tell you" that's his answer - OMG

Contentious, condescending, belligerent, sarcastic, arrogant and imperious. Seemed like a good Dr. but his personality is repellent. As a paying customer being insulted and belittled is a turn off.

This doctor applied absolutely no effort or knowledge to my visit. I expressed many health concerns that were ignored entirely. I felt as if they wanted me out as quickly as I walked into the room. I was prescribed antibiotics for my sinus congestion with no explanation as to why. The first nurse failed at drawing blood and did not cover the area before leaving the room to ask another nurse for help. Terrible service.

Don't waste your money. He's definitely a doctor that doesn't care and doesn't even sit down to discuss health concerns you have.
