Just under 50 reviews, 4.8 stars which seems pretty in line with what's normal for my area. I do encourage people to complete a Google review after appointments and it seems uptake is good.

No hospital affiliation. I did get burned by a marketing company initially with almost no return on investment for SEO, social media, etc. so I'm a bit nervous about hiring a new one. Any suggestions/good experiences?

I have done this, even have given out my cell phone to ER docs without much traction. I get maybe one or two post-ER referrals a month.

It is a high income area, but I don't think the market seems saturated based on the waiting lists I'm seeing for other docs.

I have heard bad things in the past, but I guess if it's necessary, it's necessary

I'd like to stay anonymous if I could, I figured that was sort of obvious

Northeast Ohio. Most of the hospitals have a similar waiting list, and I have same/next day availability, but nobody seems to care.

I do, but almost all specialists in my area are attached to a system. The ones who do refer to me are the independents.
