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.

Friendly and Down-to-Earth Doc
We visit every 6 months. I tell him what's happening with me and he listens and then evaluates. If meds need to be changed, he explains the "why" and what to look for. he comes across as being concerned about me.

Saw Dr Vavra for 15 years. Always spent time with me and cared about my concerns. The staff was gruff at times but always efficient. Would highly recommend.
