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.

He is condescending and his staff is apathetic not to mention grossly obese.

Dr. Sanden performed an excellent craniotomy for GBM on me, plus a special pad inserted in the site. That was all done 5 years ago, I'm still around and doing better having been taken off chemotherapy a year ago as well as my MRI schedule going from 90 days to 180 days. Thanks so much Dr. Sanden.
