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.

Best Cardiologist
Dr. Hovis is an amazing doctor and is so kind and compassionate and really gets to know you as a patient. I recently aged out of the pediatric setting, but he was my cardiologist since I was 14 years old. He is so knowledgeable and kind and would definitely recommend him to anyone! I definitely will miss having him as my cardiologist and am so thankful he was part of my care team for all those years.

Dr. Hovis is a very competent and caring physician. He takes time to explain everything and engages with my daughter.

Dr. Hovis was awful. He was rude and aggressive and checked his watch throughout the visit. He is not good with children and my son left in tears.
