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.

Waste of time
I was referred to Dr.Bean for hand troubles and after half a dozen appointments plus an additional referral to a neurologist (it didn't end up being a neurological issue), all she had to recommend was diet and exercise. For my hands. Everytime I saw her I had to wait for over 40 minutes as well as other patients, last appointment with her 4 other patients checked in while I was still waiting. Then she gave me 2 minutes before referring and telling me to go schedule it. She did not put in the effort and I wasted my time.
