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.

Excellent care
Dr. K has been thoughtful in figuring out the best path for my knee pain. He listens well and thinks about the whole picture.

Dr. K is amazing! He is personable and knowledgeable. He takes his time to explain what is happening to my child(ren) and I. He always takes the best course of action, and doesn't recommend unnecessary treatments. There is minimal wait time to see him. He gets you in and out quickly. I would definitely recommend him.

Terrible bedside manner, maybe good doctor?
Speaks in medical jargon, little attention to patient as a person, attentive to medical condition and seemingly has good knowledge on specialty. Only first appt so not sure yet.
