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 Doctor, Highly recommend
After recently moving to the area my wife and I searched for a new pediatrician for both our newborn and year old children. Coming from a pediatrician that we did not care for it was important to us to find some native that we trusted and made us feel heard. Dr. Snyder us so great with our kids, has an excellent sense of humor, and we always leave feeling that our concerns we heard and addressed. He is everything we hoped our new family pediatrician would offer.

The stuff he writes for science based medicine and unprofessional podcasts alienates his patients. I'm shocked he is allowed to practice in Amherst. We will be changing doctors ASAP.

Dr. Snyder is such an intelligent and caring pediatrician. He has a wonderful sense of humor, and made my children feel comfortable right away. He communicates clearly and shows a great deal of respect for the children as well as the parents. I trust his judgement and am so happy that we found him to care for our children.
