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.

Absolutely wonderful physician
Dr. Spurlock will come into your room and sit down to listen to what is going on with his patient. He doesn’t act all judgmental like other doctors in emergency medicine. He puts in orders and periodically comes back to check the patient which most doctors don’t do until discharge. He genuinely cares for his patients and I would recommend him every single time.
