Online Doctor Ratings

Think about this. I see around 100 patients per week. Roughly 50 weeks per year. That's 5000 patients visits yearly. In the roughly 5 years these sites have been popular that's 25,000 visits. Yet the average physician rating website shows 3 to 8 comments. There's no control over how often a disgruntled patient or a conniving competitor can post disparaging comments. Nor is there any control over friends and family submitting phony glowing reviews. Do people really take these physician rating sites seriously? Scary.
