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.

He is In no hurry to do anything. My brother was having trouble breathing had to remind him several times to do xray. When we asked if he looked over xray, he couldn't remember. The ER was not full and there were 2 doctors. Came back 5 minutes later and said lungs were clear when you can hear him whizzing and heart beat between 32 and 35. He also developed a rash and didn't even look at it. He had to end up going to cottage and in hospital 5 day they put patches on him incase they needed to shock him because heart rate was low and having suspicions activity and the rash Dr. Reichel didn't even look at had to do with his platelets. They never want to give you an after visit summary of what they did or lab results, they give you a generic print out off internet and your primary has to call and leaves message over and over to get result before they send anything. It's absolutely ridiculous. You would never guess that some of these physicians have 20 or 30 years experience.
