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.

Worst experience I have ever had with a doctor. Immediately came into the room having his mind made up before even asking me questions or looking at me. He kept cutting me off, and wouldn’t let me finish my question. He yelled at my mother and cut her off for asking a QUESTION. Wouldn’t recommend this guy at all.

I would not reccomend him to anyone. Instead of actually caring about what was going on with me, he was too wrapped up in texting on his phone the whole time he was in my room!

I went to Dr. Roberts for a 2nd opinion. I chose him to be the one to do my surgery. He thinks enough outside the box that he didn't accept the former diagnosis carte blanche. He ordered imaging (which hadn't been done prior) and it concluded a better idea of what he was dealing with. Dr.Roberts spent time with me and drew diagrams of the problem and answered my questions. He even called me personally to give me pertinent info. He is confident in his skills but not cocky.

I wouldn't recommend Dr. Roberts to anyone. He is a quack! Just blew me off and could have cared less about my medical condition
