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.

Dr Spivey is an excellent doctor. Have seen him for over 10 years, however, his nurse is the most incompetent nurse i have ever seen. She seems uncaring, rude and dosent seem to know what she is doing at all. After dealing with her for 2 years i have decided to find another doctor. Ashame considering the entire staff is welcoming and pleasant. Too nad for such a wonderful doctor.
