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.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Bough over the past decade. Although, years go by between appointments, his professionalism and his ability to treat me as if I saw him last month never fails. Top doctor in my opinion.

Dr Bough is extremely professional, has a great demeanor, is patient, takes time to show you your scans and explain what to expect. He is very thorough and pays attention to every little detail. His office was very nice and being at Valley Hospital was a great experience as well. I highly recommend Dr Bough!

It was my first time at the practice and I was a bit nervous being that I have never been to an ENT before. Dr. Bough came in with welcoming energy and listened to my concerns. He took the time to explain everything very well to me and what steps we needed to take moving forward. Dr. Boug shows that he cares about his patients and is truly passionate about his profession. I will be returning.
