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.

About 3 yrs ago I had a total thyroidectomy w Dr. Orloff for severe Hashimotos. She was amazing as well as her PA Zoya. My scar was minimal and surgery was flawless. She really takes the time to address your questions, concerns and fears! Best decision I ever made and just referred a friend. From a former thyroid sufferer do not waste time searching for another surgeon. You will not find a better one! As for an endocrinologist , Nathan Becker is the one you want! An A++team for sure!
