How They Respond to Reviews

Generic

The owner relies heavily on a small set of repetitive templates for positive reviews, often using the exact same phrasing for different reviewers. When addressing negative reviews, the owner adopts a defensive tone, citing HIPAA regulations to avoid addressing specific allegations.
