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.

You absolutely will never find a Doctor who actually cares more than Dr Aves. He wants to help and does it in the safest way for each person. He listens, remembers and treats people with dignity and kindness. He truly is in this to help you. Pain management is not an easy thing for doctors with restrictions or patients in pain, but he navigates it beautifully. Thank you for all you do.

Dr Aves and his staff are phenomenal. He is persistent in ordering treatments for his patients in order to help them. He is compassionate (and very, very smart. Do not try to play him) and he listens to you. Even though I am still in severe pain, Dr Aves continues to look for ways to at least ease my pain. I am grateful that he continues to try to make my life quality of life at least a little better. At this point, I would take that and I would be grateful for it. I respect him for working extremely hard to help people who are in pain. If you’re doctor shopping for narcotics, he is not your guy. If you’re looking for a great doctor who is willing to try different treatments to help you, he is your guy. He is hardworking, honest and a great doctor. I can’t say enough good things about him and his staff. He is definitely a credit to his profession.

I don't find doctors I like and want to see, I will honestly deal with a cold or flu just because it's so hard for me to find someone who seems to want to get to know me as more than a dollar sign, I was so blessed when my old pain management dr screwed up several appointments in a role and wouldn't fill my meds because of his front office screw ups, being that I had to find a new dr I was so thrilled when my first pick turned out to be someone who wanted to know me not just my mone.
