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.

Would NEVER recommend Dr. Eagon to anyone and would absolutely recommend finding another doctor. He is all about money, does not listen to his patients, does not care what his patients think or if they are in pain. Very forceful with his decision for your treatment without any input from patient. It was just a horrible experience. I have been to many doctors in my life for mostly injuries from sports and he was just the worst, by a long shot. STAY AWAY

I have total confidence in his surgical ability. However, don't expect to see him much before or after the surgery. You'll be under the care of a nurse unless you have complications. Dr. Eagon has a very busy practice and it is difficult to get on his surgical calendar.
