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.

Terrible. Just terrible. He told my fiancé something could be potentially wrong but he had to go on vacation for 3 weeks. That they would figure out what was wrong when he got back. So glad we didn't wait for you to get back Dr. Smith because my fiancé has cancer! !!

Dr. Smith was absolutely wonderful! He didn't make me wait very long before coming into the exam room. He made me feel comfortable and was very kind and personable. He took his time and I didn't get the impression he was rushing through my diagnosis so he could get to the next patient. I would definitely see him again, and I would recommend him to anyone. The staff was great, as well.
