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.

Shuns responsability
I do not respect a doctor who is 'shady' in his treatment of patience. If you question anything about his treatment he drops you with a bad mark on your medical record. Whether what he drops you for is true or not. How dare you say something is not right silly patient. You are not God Dr. Bridgewater.You disrespect other doctors and seem to try and defy their opinion. They delay your perscriptions and seem upset about it when you call. They act like your are putting them out by wanting your medicine on time.

My daughter went here for help with pain management. She saw a Nurse Practitioner named Holly. She was horrible to my daughter. She called her a liar and a drug addict. My daughter has only been on prescription pain medicine and no other drugs. There are false positives. She has no way or means of getting drugs. She insulted my daughter by telling her she looked like a drug addict. My daughter was a beautiful young girl. Her life was ruined when she was diagnosed with Cushings disease. This disease took its toll on my daughter’s body. She has lost all of her teeth and is fixing to have surgery for a feeding tube. My daughter left this office in tears. I wish I had been there with her so I could have told this Holly person that my daughter is not a liar or a drug addict. I don’t think it was necessary for my daughter to have been treated this way.
