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.

This is the worst place I have ever worked for. Nothing was ever good enough. To penmanship, to being the only one working there with two doctors. Being the receptionist, medical assistant, biller, opening and closing, keeping inventory was a lot. If they ran out of people and you had to open. You had to figure it out. Or the internet would get cut off every other month. But you get in trouble for not printing off the necessary things the night before. The if your physical is covered under your insurance. She separate the physical into 2 parts. One being the paper work and the other being the physical. i was fresh out of school and didn't have time to take my test. This is not a race thing but you would think you own people would treat you better. And they would not try to get down on one another. They are both amazing doctors. However I do not recommend working or being a patient. When a doctor arrive 3 hrs after your appt time the no longer care about your time.
