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.

Sat in the corner the entire appointment with a demeanor of someone you should bow down to. I dont get treated with him my main oncologist is at a larger hospital but I get treatment locally and somehow I ended up getting a appointment with him. I have a rare cancer pretty sure something he has never dealt with or for that matter read much about. Yet somehow he starts drilling with me questions not at all relevant to the cancer I have. I finally turned and asked him a question I knew he would not know about the cancer I have and he got quiet at that point realizing I wasnt going to accept the garbage he was spewing. His only job was to review my bloodwork he had nothing to do with my treatment plan. He finally did rise from his throne to examine me. I guess hes still learning how to examine a patient at 70. He firmly pressed on both my ribs rather then an actual organ. I was in the middle of asking questions about a rash at the end of the appointment and he abruptly left.
