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.

Issues after Nerve Block
Prior to surgery, Dr. Smith explained to me how he was going to do a nerve block for my Achilles Surgery. When I woke from surgery the nerve block was not completed in the location I was told. There is no explanation post-surgery of the location change. Now three years later, I experience nerve issues in my knee and below. If I were to have the same surgery again, I would forego the nerve block as the short-term pain is better than the long-term effects.
