For doctors and medical practices, online reviews carry enormous weight — patients choose providers based on them. Yet physicians are uniquely constrained: patient privacy means you often can’t respond to a review at all, even to correct a blatant falsehood.
That asymmetry makes doctors a target for defamatory, fake and confidentiality-breaching reviews — including from non-patients and competitors. Many of these breach Google’s policies and can be removed.
Common unfair reviews for doctors
