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.

The best of the best! Clinically superb, caring and concerned. Trust him implicitly. Anyone who can see him is most fortunate.

Doesn't connect with you as a real person. Arrogant. He has risen to the top of his field but is narrow in his approach. What he explains is in paragraphs not necessarily connected to what a person takes in. He is great for folks who want to see their doctor as all-knowing. But if you are an educated consumer, he is not your doctor. He is recommended very highly by other doctors as he fits the mold and has risen to the top. I personally didn't find him to be that helpful.

I had a nodule on my parathyroid gland and Dr. Bockman recommended an excellent surgeon to remove it.
