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.

He has saved my life literally, by being the only Doc out of many that had a suspicion as to what was wrong with me. Sure enough Dr. Smith was right on target. I trust my life with him, and will continue to do so. People talk about his bedside manner, and I think it is fine. He is right down to the point of what is wrong, and a lot of people can't handle a doctor that is a straight shooter. Again saved my life for which I am very grateful!
