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. Lowe was informative, most helpful, and very cooperative. He is a good doctor, and a great guy!

Dr. Fantastic
Dr. Lowe is a fantastic doctor and shows so much care and compassion. I am overwhelmed with all of the information that is coming at me, however Dr. Lowe and the staff (especially Jasmine) have given me the confidence and reassurance that I needed to know a positive outcome is possible. I am happy that Dr. Lowe is my cancer doctor. He explains everything and makes me feel like he is really listening to my concerns and fears while giving me the confidence I really need.

A caring listener, open to ideas
Dr Lowe has been my oncologist since my original diagnosis in 2019. As my case has progressed, he has always accommodated my requests for tests and treatments that help me gain insight into my situation, so we can make mutual decisions for best next steps. When I had complications from chemotherapy, Dr Lowe visited me in the hospital every morning for 11 days, to assess my situation.

Dr. Lowe has been a terrific “QB” for my Torrance Memorial-Cedars Sinai oncology team the past 3-years. From day 1 when I was diagnosed with P16 squamous cell carcinoma, Dr. Lowe has been a true professional. His explanations through every step of my treatment & the recovery process were honest & easy to comprehend. Dr. Lowe was always a great listener, patient with my challenges and provided good detail to help me understand key milestones in my treatment & recovery. I always understood what to expect each week & the next 30, 60 & 90-days. Truly appreciate his knowledge, charismatic personality, collaboration & exceptional communications.
