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. Hammond is cordial but professional. He answers questions with patience, or offers to research questions not immediately answerable.. He also saved my life nine years ago by diagnosing and removing a sinus cyst that could have had serious consequences, but didn't because of his knowledge, prompt diagnosis, and skill in surgical procedures and equipment. I moved two years ago and my health care has a gap in it because I cannot go to his office for checkups! .I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr Hammond and his staff are great to work with! They listen and they care. Dr, Hammond removed polyps in my sinus cavity with 100% success, actually finding two polyps during surgery. I felt safe and informed and would definitely recommend them!
