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.

Excellent surgeon! Thorough explanations. Pleasant manner.

Dr.Potter seems to be a very professional individual in terms of his interaction with me as a patient. He is attentive, explains the issues with an absolute clarity and confidence. I am also impressed with the supportive approach of his other staffs as well during my surgery.

Such a nice caring man. I have had to see Dr. Potter 3-4 times in the last few years for a repeated medical problem. He is excellent in his care and respect for patients. All the nurses who assist him are super nice as well. Good guy!
