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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Braxton?
I would recommend you get a second opinion. His patient and risk assessment and skills are poor. And if things go badly, he immediately excuses himself from the situation using the excuse that the surgery was not the problem. Talks down to the nurses and family members. Has a high opinion of himself.
