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.

I was very nervous and scared! Being my son was only six months having a procedure done. Dr. Falterman made me real comfortable and explained everything to me down to how long it would even take. Procedure and recovery went well!

My daughter is very shy around most people even those she knows well. Dr Falterman was amazing with her! He drew with her and took so much time to make her feel comfortable! She interacted with him and tht is HUGE for her. I definitely would recommend him!
