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 would never recommend this doctor to anyone. He was completely irresponsible in his care of my elderly mother, and when I confronted him he lashed out at me in various ways. He did NOT see her in person, but instead relied on the erroneous diagnosis given to him OVER THE PHONE by the extremely inept GREENBRIER NURSING HOME in Parma Heights, Ohio. She was finally hospitalized for several days and suffered such horrific pain from an infection that covered her whole body! I have the pictures!
