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.

Everything was fast, he may have felt like he had enough info but I felt like I had more to share.

By far & away best gastro specialist. I have met w/in 20 years. Asked questions no other had ever asked. Tested to rule out possible causes rather than just observe symptoms.
