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.

Bsd. Dr Brenes is possibly THE best doctor to whom I have been. The way in which he treats his patients, with courtesy, respect , knowledge and even humour is reflected bythose with those who work with him .i cannot praise him highly enough. I feel like a family member who is cherished and cared about and given the very best treatment. The staff whether office or medical, all seem to take on this feeling of caring about the patients. I feel blessed to have found him and them. THANKYOU
