How reviews are moderated
We review all ratings under the same rules: firsthand experience, no spam, harassment, conflicts of interest, or someone else’s private information. A low rating alone is never a removal reason. Tours are labeled separately. Reviews do not establish clinical quality.
Use a nickname or first name and last initial. Do not include medical records, diagnoses, contact details, or patient or staff names. Sign in with the same email to edit or withdraw your review. Provider responses require email verification, content review, and a separate check of representative authority through an independently listed contact.
Reports go to our team; they do not automatically hide reviews. For urgent safety issues, contact the provider, your state regulator, or emergency services.
