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.

Waited several days for my surgery and he joked about being annoyed that my surgery was on a Sunday. On my follow up I went yo his office and I had many questions but he had someone from his office remove my staples, yes staples who uses staples on a 115 pound person? This person had no scrubs couldn’t even tell that they worked there. They spoke to each other in their language and he left. Didn’t answer any after care questions and this person he left me with didn’t know anything about after care. The absolute worst experience I’ve ever had with a doctor

Went in for a Upper GI. The following two weeks after the procedure I had trouble breathing and throat pain. The doctor missed three phone appointments and kept rescheduling. After a ER visit I decided I would never see this doctor again.
