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 was a patient for 20+ years and could not be happier to have moved on. I have been misdiagnosed multiple times. Please get a second opinion before going to get multiple tests done. The professionalism and bedside manner is HORRIBLE. Would 10/10 not recommend.

Run, don't walk... AWAY from this practice. Archaic. Condescending and uninformed physician and staff. Cannot separate medical practice from private religious beliefs. Openly displays attitudes toward women's rights. Pathetic.

Listen to the 1 star reviews. His medical knowledge is archaic. Go to a different doctor or get a second opinion

I've been going to Dr. Clifford for years! The entire staff is wonderful and truly listens. They all always take the time for each patient and do their best to take care of everyone. I have no idea what these other people are talking about!

My husband didn’t even have an appointment and they charged him a no show fee. Then two weeks later we received a discharge notice. It’s one thing if you scheduled the appointment, but to get discharged due to a clerical error. Dr Clifford refuses to take him back. Over the only no show he’s ever had for an appointment he never made.

there were a few diagnosis's that didn't make any sense ? last yr he told me that I was obese and impotent .I have never been obese as people know me can testify and being impotent i guess because of my age he assumed that i was impotent he is ????? I wouldn't recommend him to my enemy It seems that his diagnosis need some refinement and kept up to date. That is the honest to goodness truth.
