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.

If I could give a zero, I would.
This man should not be allowed to practice. We encountered him at Atlantic Rehab Institute and it was the most horrible experience because of him. Look at the reviews from some time ago. There are some very bad ones which truly reflect his character. Then a bunch of good reviews appear; that happens when someone is trying to do damage control. He will harm a patient instead of doing the right thing because he will not admit that he is wrong. He would rather see a patient decline than see them recover if his prognosis and diagnosis are wrong—-and they often both are wrong. He is a severely sick individual with an inflated sense of self-importance. He believes he is infallible; textbook God complex. He walks around like he is all-knowing, and refuses to help individuals. He will actually refuse to treat a person so that their condition worsens so he can be “right”. If you see him coming, RUN!!!

I don’t like going to the doctor, but Dr. Rempson was great. He’s such a good listener, collaborative, and a strong advocate for my health. I’m really happy with the concussion care he provided, and back on my way to doing things again!

If you are a woman don't go because he will tell you everything you feel is not real and it's in your head. It's all anxiety. Because I'm not a man or a athlete it must be imaginary. I'm so disgusted. Any symptoms I had he shook his head no and said can't be possible.. I was such a waste. He had good reviews so I never expected this.
