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.

Highly recommend!!
Dr. Wallace was a godsend. I went to see him for a second opinion and he instantly took me in and scheduled me for an evaluation. I was soooo tired of vomiting and taking omeprazole (for 5 years!). He also noted that I had osteoporosis and asthma and took that under consideration. In the end, he found esophagitis and repaired a large, twisted hernia. A repair procedure that normally takes 1-1/2 hours took 4 hours. I am so grateful he didn't give up! Recovery is long, but sooo worth it! I would recommend him to anyone!!

Be Aware! Former patient, ETS surgery. Went in with one problem, walked out with 3 problems. This surgery has officially screwed up my life. Compensatory sweating is a common side affect. Yes, the word 'Compensatory sweating' was mentioned with little to NO detail on what that could mean. And the blood clot that, for reasons unknown, formed in my lung causing permanent damage six hours after ETS will inevitably cause me more grief and shorten my life. Would absolutely NOT recommend!
