Not only do the positive reviews here sound similar, most of the reviewers have only posted once, which is extremely suspicious. The writing also sounds the same in nearly every review, with fairly fake-sounding usernames.
Every negative review has someone who's marked it ""unhelpful"" and one negative review on City Pages even has the doctor demanding a retraction (hint: you have to email the webmasters, not announce it publicly). So clearly the office is monitoring popular rankings websites.
It's always suspicious anyway to see a flood of 5-star rankings, with a few extremely negative reviews. The authentic ones will generally hover around the middle.
Normally I wouldn't say anything if this was a spa or a restaurant, but this is a doctor's office. As in, people who undergo surgery do risk dying, as with any procedure with anesthesia. Is this really what healthcare has come to? Doctors with Facebook pages like tweens and status-boosting reviews like corporations? Good grief, that?s a dismal thought.
