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.

Bad, bad, bad
He likes to talk down to patients. Asked me why I took asthma medications. Ran tests but never reviewed results with me in person. Didn’t seem to be able to read a chart. Told me I didn’t have things that other doctors previously diagnosed me with. Claimed he could “fix me” when I have a long term genetic condition that is incurable. Gave no referrals to other specialists even when I asked for them. Spent most of my visit trying to get me to bring my 82 year old father to the Mayo Clinic so they could treat his bloody noses. After a failed surgery attempt, he left me a voicemail saying there was nothing they could do for me. He never offered a second office visit to review results or discuss follow up.
