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.

Saved My Life
I had to go to the emergency room in early April, 2024, for severe swelling under my chin, and my tongue was swollen for months. I was unable to eat or swallow liquids for over six weeks, and I was deteriorating rapidly. By this time, I had lost approximately 22 pounds. Dr. Cusser was the attending physician. He listened to me carefully and stated that he was basically a patch and immediately fix doctor, but he thought that steroids would be beneficial. Around the fourth day or so of taking the steroids, I was finally able to swallow liquids. I continued on prednisone, as this gave me back my life. Up until this point, my life was a nightmare. Dr. Cusser has no idea how he has given me back my ability to eat and be mobile, as I was too weak to walk due to my inability to consume anything. I will be forever grateful to him. I am sure I would not be here, if it were not for him. Dr. Cusser is an excellent doctor. Thank you!
