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.

The first time I saw Dr. Peterson, he was helpful. The second time, I came in for a follow-up and to get a refill on a prescription. He loudly lectured me and accused me, falsely, of having stopped by the office the previous month demanding more pills. This was untrue; I had not been in his his office since our previous appointment many months earlier. It was strange and humiliating. Would never see him again.

Nightmare bedside manner, self-absorbed, no tolerance, zero to a hundred in a second at 1st challenge for anything he has to have his way was my impression.
