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.

Family member for an infection after surgery. She kept saying it wasn’t bad and prescribed antibiotics. They went back to see her again and told the doctor it was getting worse and she prescribed 2 antibiotics. Hospitalization needed due to infection. Her staff is unprofessional and nasty.

I had surgery with Dr. Bialowas earlier this year and received very little follow up care from her post-op- even after I developed a staph infection in the surgical site. Do not recommend!!!

Initially I had a high opinion of this doctor but now I don't trust her. She said my husband's post surgery wound looked great but it didn't. It then became infected. We think she is a quack.

I had a breast reduction after desperately wanting one and being too scared for over a decade. Dr. Bialowas put my mind at ease and did such an amazing job, I hug her every time I see her. I'm a month post-surgery now and she has been wonderful, encouraging, reassuring, and very, very skilled at her job. I love this doctor, and I love my new boobs!!
