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.
He's great!

Dr Lininger is a caring, compassionate, efficient, professional physician who has his skills all honed in. I went for cervical spine injection. I thought he just numbed me up prior to the injection waiting for the rest of it to be done. I was surprised that it was already over. Didn't feel a thing.I wouldn't hesitate to go back or refer friends and family.
