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.

I very much appreciate the relationship I have with Dr. Benedict. She listens to my concerns and takes them into account when treating me.

The dr. listened to me but spent her time talking into a tape recorder or typing into an iPad. At the end I had to ask her what she thought.
