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.

Great with my family
He has been my doctor and my family's (mom, dad) for years. He has always been patient and caring with all of us.

Bad advice
Saw him bc my regular GP at that location couldn’t see me. I had been very sick & suspected I had developed a sinus infection, possibly chest, too. My main complaint was severe sinus congestion and coughing up lots of thick, green phlegm. He said my lungs sounded clear. Since I was on day 7 of illness, he gave me an RX for antibiotics that I could get filled on day 10 if not better. He also prescribed a certain nasal spray to help with my severe sinus congestion. Later in the same day, took my daughter to a different dr because of an unrelated illness. While in that appointment I kept coughing. That Dr asked if I was ok. Told him about seeing previous Dr and how he gave me a just-in-case antibiotic. He said, “You sound like you are coughing up gravel! If I were you I’d go fill that script now.” Did so. Then I took the first dose of that spray. It dried my nostrils out painfully and did NOT help with the sinus congestion AT ALL. I looked up the drug. It’s for RUNNY NOSE not congestion!

Valentine is a nazi, who is refusing to treat certain patients. Dr. Mengele was a doctor too. PS I got his "treatment"

Was referred to Dr. Valentine when I moved here. He is rude and condescending, and threw several tantrums in appointments, finally storming out and refusing to treat me anymore. He ignored recommendations of my specialists, neglected to do any blood work to monitor my considerable prescription intake for several chronic conditions, and refused to refer me elsewhere, literally telling me I should "go back where you came from" if I wasn't happy. Do not let this man treat you or anyone you love.
