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.

Best cardiologist ever!!
With his extensive background in electrophysiology, Dr. Derbies is an outstanding doctor for anyone with heart issues. He explains things in detail and is kind and compassionate. I have a rare electrical issue and he is most certainly the best cardiologist I have ever had. Unfortunately he has moved from Hawaii and is deeply missed by his patients.
