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. Kind has been my G.I. doctor for more than a decade and I moved with him when he joined UCLA Health. However, he departed UCLA Health in January 2021 without so much as a goodbye letter and apparently has moved out of state.

I'm a new patient with Dr. Kind and I'm very impressed. He has an excellent no-nonsense manner but it's clear he cares very much about each patient. He even called me on his personal cell to give me my blood results. What a concept! I recommend him very highly. Douglas Curtis Camarillo, Ca August 11, 2020
