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.

Great Doctor
I have seen him about 2 years or more. I am very happy with the resuts. We have discussed my medication, he made recomendationsand I am very satisfied. I have had telehealth a few times, and normally, in office.

Awful experience
I had a terrible experience with Dr Matin. He made up his mind about my medical condition within the first 5 minutes of my visit and did not want to hear anything from me. I could not even finish my sentence without him interrupting and correcting me. Increased and changed all of medications within only two visits causing me extreme anxiety and insomnia. Save yourself a lot of grief and do not go to see him.

Office of clowns
I’ve seen Dr. Matin for years at this point. His office is such a mess. Takes forever to do anything and everything most of the time. He’s missed one of my appointments entirely saying he assumed I’d be there in person and didn’t know why I wasn’t. After his front desk told they only had virtual appointments. He’s been an hour late to multiple appointments. And he doesn’t listen. I stayed with him because he had my records already, was nearby, and offered OMM which is what I wanted at the time. He led me astray with a chronic illness I had been dealing with for years. He had me on an ungodly amount of methocarbamol. When I went to the pain specialist they were blown away by the amount he had prescribed me rather than referring me out for specialized treatment. He even argued with me when I requested to be referred somewhere specific. I’ve recently switched PCPs. 4C medical group even told me this office is embarrassing. So there’s that too. 2 stars for the OMM.

Very knowledgeable with my health concerns and explains my lipids results in a way i can understand. He really does all he can to get your health issues resolved and balanced. but most of all he can be trusted, that is why I'm leaving a review today.

Would not recommend this doctor to anyone, ever. I was a caregiver for a 45 year old man with terminal brain cancer (has since passed away). Matin's treatment for pain included massages, which up to four times a month, with no relief. He refused to provide a letter to the AZ Grand Jury to excuse a man who had cognitive issues and was unable to speak (Aphasia) and paralysis so he could not write. His neurologist *Barrows* had to write the letter. He should not practice medicine.
