This is a site where you can go in and rate your Dr and his/her office. They have every state (and Canada) and if your Dr is not on the list you can easily add them. Maybe if we all did that we might be able to help each other avoid problems in that area. I am lucky to have all the best Drs from my GP, Urologist and Gyn/Onc. I would love for everyone to have my GP, as she is the one that told me it was definitely not a hernia and with my history she sent me to a wonderful OBGYN Dr. who did tests VERY quickly and sent me on to my GYNONC who is WONDERFUL. Try the site and see what you think.

I've signed onto the site in the past. It's new and needs more doctors added by us. However, the format is good. The best part is that a dermotologist that was terrible had some 10 comment entries similar to my experience. So at least for the truly poor - it does give a good picture. He'd come highly recommended by a doctor I respect, so it made me feel better to know I wasn't the only one who'd had that impression of him. Thanks for posting about this.
Have added all drs I've ever seen, have used it to choose specialists. Great site, but still need to take what you read with a grain of salt. I still used friends, collegues experiences as well to make decisions about the drs I go to. When entering comments I stick to my experience, don't bring other friends or co-workers thoughts into it and don't write anything in haste. It can be a helpful site to many!
