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.

Simply wonderful
Dr. Harris was very good at listening and answering my questions. His approach is non-aggressive. He recommended not to have surgery on my Inguinal hernia because there was no bulge. He explained the CT scan image thoroughly. His advice is very credible and intelligent. I trusted his professional judgement, felt very comfortable with his diagnosis and treatment.

Mr Harris operated my father who is a very complex patient with multiple medical problems. My father's condition is completely resolved and he recovered so fast that did not even used any pain medication after the surgey. In addition, Dr Harris is not only a very talendeted surgeon he is also very caring and very kind person. I highly recommend him.

Simply wonderful, and the staff too! I had to have a procedure, as stubborn as I was initially declining. I was glad i eventually did...he was very patient. His office staff today post-followup were simply amazing too. I had to just share this!

I had emergency gallbladder removal and Dr. Harris was focused, sharp and patient in describing the process. He answered my questions and those of my husband. He has an easy bed-side manner and was able to earn my confidence.

Last week I had a bilateral hernia operation with Dr. Harris. My operation was far from a simple one; it took almost 5 hours. It was an extremely complicated surgery but Dr. Harris performed it with no complications. He took the time before and after the surgery to talk with me and make sure I was doing well. Every time I had a question, he and his staff were there to answer them. This was such a big hurdle in my life to overcome, and I am blessed to have had Dr. Harris perform the surgery.
