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.

Yes, I would recommend him. I was very frightened & unsure of having my surgery . I knew it was extremely necessary . Dr. Nachtigal sat & explained it thoroughly to me & my husband. He did so in a professional way that was very reassuring. I knew I would be fine, he assuaged my fears, did a great job & I am eternally grateful, my whole family is.
