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.

Talk about medical gaslighting....
The worst experience I've ever had with a practitioner. Rude, condescending, didn't listen. Never. Again.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Reinheimer?
I accompanied my 93-year-old father to an appointment that was a follow-up to an emergency room visit the previous week where my dad was diagnosed with pneumonia. My father, a retired dentist, has had visits with many physicians over the past 93 years, primarily for cardiac-related issues, and was very impressed with the knowledge and professionalism of Dr. Reinheimer. During the appointment, my dad decided to have Dr. Reinheimer designated as his primary care physician. He is very perceptive and has a lot of empathy for his patients. Dr. Reinheimer realizes the importance of understanding a patient's life/medical experiences. He asked intelligent questions, listened carefully, and explained his recommendations in a forthright manner.
