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.

Very nice person, gave details when asked about injury. I am giving one star due to the very poor office staff. Waited hour past my sch'd time when complain office manager sticks you in a room with another 1/2 hour wait. will never suggest this practice to anyone.

Had a hip replacement done two weeks ago, did not remember me, abruptly interrupts while speaking, leaves the room constantly and never gives you his full attention. He said I maybe overprotecting my bad leg, well I think so I am in very bad pain still and does not give me the chance to explain my pain, he adds in his own feelings and words. I hope the surgery was a success and I wish he cared more. I should of done my homework better.
