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.

Today, I completed 23 sessions of radiation, supervised by Doctor Purdon,an outstanding doc.His therapists, Rebecca and Tim, are an exemplary team. They treated me with great care and compassion throughout my treatments.Although radiation itself is painless, because of the locations that required treatment, some of my visits were painful.Rebecca and Tim did everything in their power to make me as comfortable as possible, and did so very patiently.Dr Purdon treated me with great care and patience
