I found alot of people rate their physicians on Yelp, try there for your local hospital and Dr's reviews.  I found mine there,     ( all good reviews  :in-love:  )  also, try:


https://www.healthgrades.com/find-a-hospital     they have a review portal available


http://www.healthcarereviews.com/   They have a huge site to explore!   8)

Check with your insurance company.  Mine has a website that lists all the doctors info that's included in the network.

I would suggest you just Google the doctor's name, so you don't let someone else feed you information that is biased.

Google their name - You can find out a lot that way.
