Patient Reviews
Oct 26, 2025
I’m surprised by this doctor’s perfect rating. After my experience, I don’t feel it reflects the quality of care I received. The reviews all sound very similar and overly positive, which makes them seem less genuine. In my opinion, the care I received did not live up to a five-star level—closer to a two-star experience at best.
