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.

Best emergency doctor hands down. I've been seen by him in the emergency room and he's very understanding and nice as can be . I wish u could have him for a private doc. Many blessings are sure to come his way.

My son had been suffering for weeks and we had seen specialists and been in ER's 4 times and NO ONE was helpful until we went to Willis Knighton North and was seen by Dr Farquhar. He was wonderful and was able to diagnosis him and my son had to have surgery the following day..this after WEEKS of suffering. When I thanked him, his reply to me was What for? All I did was listen to ya'll and took it from there Finally someone listened. No words can express my gratitude.
