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.

Dr. Putman was amazing! She sat, listened, and created a detailed treatment plan. I feel confident being under her care.

Saw Her Friday May 10th
She saw me for less than 30 seconds. Sent me down hall to clean ears. No one saw me after that. I like her but didn't even ask about ringing my left ear. I was very disappointed with visit. Can she help with ringing in left ear or not.
