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.

My 5 year old son.
My son was 5. It was a sudden surgery from a golf ball size tumor on his brain stem. He was in surgery 20 hours at U of I hospital. Dr Wilson did the surgery. My son is 16 now and you would never know. I still get emotional when I see the man. My family and I will never stop thanking him for performing a miracle.

He listens and answered my many questions. As a medical professional with many years of medical experience, I trust him to complete surgery on myself. Thankful he's here in Iowa.

While some surgeons have poor bedside manner, Dr. Wilson takes this to a new level. I'm nearing retirement age. He puts an entirely new spin on bad manners. He might be the worst physician, or professional of any type, I've ever come into contact with. My husband was also alarmed by his attitude in my presents. Please stay away from this man. There are many neurologists to choose from. Select a caring one. Do your research!
