FOR PATIENTS: Search over 139,000 surgeons and podiatrists across all 50 states. See their TrustCut Score — based on one simple question asked to nurses: "Would you RECOMMEND this surgeon to a friend or family member?" Browse detailed category ratings including technical skill, bedside manner, communication, and more. • Find surgeons by name, specialty, or location • Use "Find Surgeons Near Me" to discover top-rated surgeons nearby • View scores based on real nurse feedback, not anonymous internet reviews • See 6 detailed skill category breakdowns • Share surgeon scores with friends and family FOR NURSES: Your voice matters. Rate the surgeons you work with anonymously and confidently. Your identity is protected with cryptographic hashing — no surgeon will ever know who rated them. • Verify your account with email confirmation • Rate surgeons across 6 skill categories • Your votes are 100% anonymous • Edit your ratings anytime • Invite colleagues to join and strengthen the ratings HOW IT WORKS: Nurses rate surgeons on a core trust question plus 6 skill categories: Technical Skill, Bedside Manner, Treats Staff, Communication, Temperament, and Preparation.
