Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Highly Satisfied
I came to Dr. Blue after leaving my former physician. Dr. Blue and her staff take excellent care of me every time I go in. In the first month of seeing Dr. Blue I can honestly say that she did more for me than my previous doctor had in the year and a half I was seeing him. Highly recommend this doctor.

Good doctor
Was seen almost 1 hour late. Staff was nice but not well trained. I had to repeat my EKG 3 times because of mistakes by the nurse on hookup. Had to ask about my labs and vaccine before I left. I think Dr. Blue is a good doctor working in a disorganized office.

Dr Blue , is thorough , knowledgeable, and professional. She genuinely cares about your well being and takes the time to diagnose and break it down in layman’s terms how to move forward with treatment. Kinda rare to find these days

I established w/Dr. Blue after mvg to the MB area - I am overweight, over 60 w/a history of high chol. (provided in history) AND told her my A1c's were climbing. Dr. Blue didn't order either test. I told her nurse ( always rude) on 2nd visit. 9 months later, feeling very ill, I got an appt. She grimaced when she saw my list of things to discuss and talked over me but I insisted on an A1c and a lipid. I don't need a consult. I'm an RN. I need meds! Call them in and don't waste my time!
