Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

I would not hesitate to recommend this practice! They are helpful, professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Dr. Nelson explained the entire process and did a thorough and complete exam, which left me with confidence that I made the right decision in choosing them to treat my mild sleep apnea.

I was referred to Dr Nelson when we moved to Land O Lakes in 1996. He has provided excellent dental care from my first visit. His staff is equally professional. Everyone is caring, friendly and always attentive to my concerns. I've never hesitated to recommend their services.
