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.

Disrespectful.

Patient in Cathedral City, CA – Apr 26, 2017

I booked an appointment for my husband with this doctor. I explained his medical history and stated that his medication for anxiety, depression, and severe ptsd was no longer working. I felt confident, after reading the reviews, that this doctor would have good bedside manner and would be able to treat my husband. Upon entering the room, my husband was treated without kindness. The DR refused to assist him with his medical condition and thus I have filed a complaint against him with the State.

He constantly confused information and I had to remind him of the details. I asked him to renew a prescription I had and he refused, saying I didn't "look" like I needed it. He would not call to give test results because "if I didn't make an appt they wouldn't make money." Would not recommend a specialist when needed, saying I could just find someone online. After 2 months and 4 visits I still don't know what my health problem is... Ridiculous.
