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.

Exceptional doctor
Dr. Duffey is the best. Wonderful bedside manner, he takes the time to make sure you understand what the issue is in an honest yet kind and sympathetic manner. He looks you in the eye and you automatically feel like he has your best interest in mind. You don't feel like you're just a name and another dollar. Thank you Dr. Duffey!

Professional, courteous and caring staff at OthoNeuro in Westerville. My son received outstanding care from Dr. Timothy Duffey. He took his time to examine and speak with my son to diagnose his injury and healing progress during multiple visits. Dr. Duffey was thorough with his assessment and did so with an engaging tone in his voice not often heard these days. He’s quite adept at the art of caring. Wish all doctors were like Dr. Duffey. (Thanks for being so genuine and caring, Dr. Duffey.)

Dr. Duffey was very understanding of my pain. He took a lot of time explaining my xrays and suggesting steps I could take. I chose to see Dr. Kim at his suggestion as there are some questions about the condition of my lower back and then decide if I needed an MRI. I have psoriasis so, therefore, my pain is probably psoriatic arthritis which shows in the xrays.
