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 Bander and his team were excellent! They were Friendly, kind, thoughtful, gave thorough explanation of procedure, answered questions, and made me feel very comfortable about the entire experience. Sent me home with clear directions about self care following surgery. Highly recommend Dr Bander.
