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.

I Don’t appreciate being lied to.

A single video visit and plenty of messages with no interest in believing my pain was real as far as I could tell. I asked him about correcting some of my history and he denied being the person to ask and referred me somewhere else for that. I pointed out it is in fact his job and no one else can. He then proceeded to tell me he can’t change anything but told me in the same paragraph he deleted acute from my erosive gastritis. WTH? I have had dehydration problems sure but the erosive gastritis was a side effect of a previously prescribed drug, a single event. He didn’t care and it still is wrong. Now it looks as if I’ve had lots of them. I was in indescribable pain and left to suffer. I’ve since switched to Ssm and have had 2 artificial discs put in my neck. So yeah it was real.
