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.

Myself, Having a rare form of lung cancer, I looked for a doctor that was brilliant & compassionate. I never doubted him, which is rare for me too! The best of the best!

I was lucky enough to have Dr Kies as part of my medical team at MD Anderson. He always seemed to have plenty of time to explain my treatment plan and answer all my questions. Very patient oriented. Thank you Dr Kies !

I have Dr. Kies to thank for saving my life in 2015! Dr. Kies helped me with a clinical trial with a new cancer drug and gave me a path to wellness when so many had written me off. He actually called me on a Sunday once with test results from a Saturday appointment! Wow- that is the difference. He cares and gets into the details of each of his many patients. I started treatment in April 2015 and was in remission after only four months. He is one of the greats! I enthusiatically recommend him!
