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 husband is a kidney transplant patient. Dr.Ong is his UAB doctor, he has excellent bedside manner. He worked hard to find my husband problem. While admitted he didn't stop until he found the problem. He is interested in me as his caregiver. He listens! He is excellent. I have worked in the healthcare system and retired. I observe from the time doctors washes their hands before examining the patient and Dr. Ong does this plus make sure my husband understand how to take his new medical dosages.
