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 not recommend this doctor to anyone
My husband saw the doctor mid August 2022 for a hip replacement surgery. He said he would do it and we would get a call from his staff in a couple of days to set up a surgical date. At that point we were told he was booking surgeries into November 2022. Two weeks later we never heard from his office. We called them 3 times to get a surgical date, no return call. Last weekend, 2 months later we got a call from the office. I told the woman how unprofessional my husband was handled. Did they think we would wait forever for the office to call us back for a surgical date, when he has been in so much pain and at this point the doctor was probably booking into y next year. My husband has hip surgery this week with another doctor who we like and whose office has been on top of things. Everything has been well co -ordinated for pre op and post op.
