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.

My child was very sick and had limited time. We were given a horrible diagnosis a month prior of a terminal brain tumor. She had some complications and had to present in the ER. This mans treatment was less than humane. The lack of compassion was unbelievable and the amount of pain he allowed her to be in because she simply was a “very sick kid” is incomprehensible. A man of this character should no longer be treating patients in any capacity.

My Grandchild, who had been diagnose with an aggressive brain tumor, needed emergency care for a blockage in her intestine. She came to the emergency room in incredible pain. He was the most uncaring doctor that my family has ever seen, and showed no compassion for my Grand daughter's condition at all. I see his age at 64. Time for him to retire. How a pediatric hospital can have a man such as this on their staff is beyond me.

This Dr should not practice. Did not physically exam my son. Gave horrible medical instructions. Did nothing to help my son, then on the discharge instructions stated to bring him back if he had the same symptoms he walked in with and they did nothing to assist. He asked if we would "feel" better if he put some specialist Dr names in the chart! Waiting on an apology and action plan from the hospital due to his lack of care!
