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.

Simply the Best!
He has the best bedside manner, takes time to explain things and answer questions and you you can tell he still loves what he does. Couldn’t have asked for a better doctor to take care of my mother’s injury.

5 star rating for Dr. MacIlwaine
One of the best drs. I have ever known in my lifetime(78 years). He takes his time to explain every detail of your problem, and right away he is concerned, listens intently to what you have to say, and takes his time to answer any questions you may have. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs any problem with their hands.
