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.

I moved to another state and despite the$480 a month I spend on health insurance, I couldn’t get an appointment with my new doc for 6 weeks. But Dr Cain came through iwhen I needed him. He took care of me. If it wasn’t against the law, I’d rather just spend my health insurance payments flying back to Charleston to see him. He is caring, never makes u feel rushed like so many drs do, and he’s thorough. Long story short, he’s a fantastic physician.

Dr. Cain is an experienced and caring specialist that always responds to my calls to his staff. He is intuitive as well as educated in his specialty. He runs almost or close to on time for appointments. Also important, he knows and doesn't hesitate to referrer to another specialist when he knows it is in his patient's best interest. I talk a lot, so I wish that the appointments could be a bit longer. Thank you Dr. Cain for the years of care. Pamela Allison

I had some unusual pain for a week and decided it needed professional care. I was able to come in the same day I called about it. After hearing my description and performing a check, Dr Cain was able to give a diagnosis within minutes that alleviated my concerns. Well done!
