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.

Dr Frere is an excellent neurologist. His bedside manners are great! After losing Dr Gibbs, I never thought I would find another neurologist as good as he was but I think I've found one! ECU Neurology should be grateful for doctors like he and his late colleague, Dr Gibbs. They are certainly a rare breed. You can't find doctors like them nowadays

I had brought my sister with myotonic dystrophy to her appointments with him years ago. When I needed a neurologist I was willing to wait months to see Dr. Frere. I thought very highly of him and was not disappointed. Very thorough and focused on my problem.

Never felt rushed by the Doc. It was a breath of fresh air to not be treated like a number and pushed along
