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.

Did bare minimum
He could have been slower and gentler with finger insertion. He missed an obvious observable condition called Perineum Descent, I had to visit another doctor to find out.

Doctor Zelnick knows what he's doing. Trustworthy and reliable. My procedure was very serious with a ruptured appendix and he did a remarkable job with my case. I am supremely grateful to him for his services. I was in good hands from the start.
