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.

Satisfied Customer
My experience is that Dr. Goffney was easy to talk with, explained things in appropriate detail, answered all questions and I never felt rushed. He was confident in approaching the task though my condition (mesenteric cyst) was uncommon. After the surgery, he visited every day while I recovered in the hospital (nine days - doesn't he take a day off?). I'm no expert but the nurses were greatly impressed by the quality of Dr. Goffney's work (He modestly explained that he is something of a perfectionist). It was as pleasant an experience as could be (No, bowel surgery is never pleasant but you know what I mean).
