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.

Said one sentence.
Doesn’t even care to ask patients questions, and will deny requests with absolutely no info to go on. Some doctor.

First visit, first use.
The doctor asked a lot of health questions then knew what to recommend. He then told me where it is best to get good quality product and wrote on paper, for me, the specific names of what he recommended.

He is an excellent doctor. I went to him for migraine treatment which helped immensely. Dr. Derbes is a little peculiar, but I found him to be personable, has a sense of humor, and will answer questions. I had two treatments from him, but unfortunately was not able to get any more.

I’ve seen Dr. Derbes several times over the past six months following major back surgery. He has been a very caring Doctor to say the say the least. I fact I’ll add that without a doubt he has followed up and interacted more with me that any other doctor that I’ve seen over my 67 years. Many times when I was having severe pain from a nerve problem, he called me every day at home to see how I was doing. In his office he would take whatever time was needed to explain in detail what the problem was and his plan to address it. Again simply an amazing personal and caring doctor!

Do not go to this doctor. He messed up my injections, had no idea what he was doing and claims to be a migraine specialist.

Dr. Derbes takes the time to listen to you, to find out what is going on concerning your condition and does the tests that may give insight into your diagnosis. He never ignores any symptom no matter how insignificant you may think it is. He explains your diagnosis in terms that you can understand. He truly cares about his patients and I would highly recommend him to anyone. I look forward to my visits with him and trust him completely.

Would not recommend this doctor. Bad communication. Does not listen to patient. Believes putting you on medication is the only answer even if it makes you feel worse.

Best doctor ever! Very kind and compassionate. Cares about his patients. Not only have I been his patient, but my husband and son were too. He always treated us with the upmost professional care. Would recommend him to anyone, anytime. Have been his patient for over 25 years.
