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.

Very smart and thorough.

I went with my husband to so he could see Dr. McFaden about his skin condition. The doctor never looked my husband in the eye. The doctor never looked at my husbands skin. He spent about three minutes listening to my husband, then prescribed a cream for eczema, when it clearly is not eczema (as an RN, I am no diagnostician, but I know the difference between eczema and something else) The cream he prescribed was $700 and not covered by our insurance. Never coming back!
