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.

Friendly staff and over all just a wonderful dr. He has been simply amazing with all 3 deliveries I've had. Will definitely recommend.

I've been going to him for a while now, over 6 years, like others has stated he use to be a great doctor but now.....I have no words for the unprofessional place. Some years ago he would have been highly recommended but now. Not so good. Don't waste your time.

Don't come here unless you have a full hour to hang out in the waiting room. Front desk staff is always courteous but I can't say the same for the nurses. Dr. Smith has been professional and helpful, although always in a hurry to get in and out of the room. I heard the nurse loudly stating outside the exam room that it was ridiculous that I'd come back for a 6 month appointment even though it's what Dr. Smith and I discussed. I don't appreciate their unprofessional medical staff.

I had Dr. Smith through a 7-9 year period. He USED to be an amazing, attentive, and compassionate doctor, who truly heard the concerns of his patients and made sure to comfort them and do all he can to find out what is going on. NOW he is a different doctor almost...and thats very unfortunate...He is dismissive, sarcastic about patients concerns, and completely rude. At least that was definitely the case with me. HE was amazing and now lost his edge. it hurts me to say it, and Ive heard the same
