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.

Knowledgeable and Caring!

Dr. Lopez is very caring and listened to all my health complaints and worries. He explained everything and answered all my questions. My son is 30 years old and autistic. Dr. Lopez is wonderful with him.

Not current on treatment options and this affected my care until I went to another qualified physician. Missed findings on X-ray as he said it was not his specialty. Ok well, if you are not sure what you are looking at in the first place you should have referred to another physician. If you are in good health and seeing him, you may be safe. But, if your health is failing, my advice is to find a better qualified physician. Not a doc in the box.
