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. Gisness is one of the best ER physicians I've ever come across. He saved my life in 2012 and I had to return to the ER this week and once again he was on top of everything. He is very intelligent, compassionate, and pays attention to detail. He is not much for words, but in a life or death situation he is the best. Very great guy once you get to know him. Very professional. Pain med seekers won't like him, so don't waste his time, but if you are truly sick, he will figure it out and fix it!
