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.

Fantastic care. Extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful about his patients individual needs, and a kind bedside manner!

Dr. Cass has always made himself available whenever I or a family member was in distress. He has set aside personal time to actively listen to my story and symptoms, never dismissing those perhaps inconsequential details that feel the most important when you're desperately looking for an answer. I find Dr. Cass to be honest, competent, respectful, and reassuring. Times when Dr. Cass couldn't help me directly, he has connected me with other doctors and hospitals in his network that he believed could help. However, it’s not unlike Dr. Cass to check-in on you even after you are no longer his patient.

I recently had a consultation with Dr. Cass for a general health concern, and I was thoroughly impressed by his approach. He quickly asked the right questions that pinpointed my issue, providing me with a clear and simple plan moving forward. What stood out most was Dr. Cass's compassion and patience; he genuinely took the time to listen and understand my situation, making me feel truly cared for. His ability to connect and provide reassurance is exceptional. I highly recommend Dr. Cass to anyone seeking thoughtful and effective medical advice.
