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.

Did not seem to care
My daughter had an issue with her earlobe and he had to do a minor procedure. He did not wear gloves and when asked to do so he challenged it and wouldn’t. He wouldn’t stop when my daughter asked him to, and just walked out after without talking about anything regarding care for the ear. The nurses didn’t appear able to discuss after-procedure care either . Really taken aback about this especially when a child is involved and clearly scared.

Went to Dr. Garside due to trouble breathing and snoring, was diagnosed with sleep apnea with a tonsillectomy most likely being able to correct. Dr. Garside was very upfront and honest about options, very knowledgable, explained everything. Performed tonsillectomy and have already noticed the difference. Have already recommended him to family and friends. Would give 6/5 stars if possible.

I've been seeing Dr. Garside for my ears since 2013. Out of all the doctors I had seen about my ear problems, he was the first to correctly diagnose the problem and offer a solution that worked. I see him once a year for an eardrum checkup and hearing test, and every visit is a pleasant experience. Dr. Garside doesn't make you feel rushed, or like you're just another appointment in his day, and everyone in the office is just wonderful. I can't recommend him highly enough.
