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.

Years and years ago I became very ill. I was thought to have Lyme disease but the blood tests were not 100% so the doctors I saw started me on doxycycline, I was on that for 8 months and lost my job. 1 doctor says she was trying to get me IV but ins wouldn't cover. My cousin recommend I go out of state& I met with Dr Strauss ... That night she called me and got me 8 weeks IV.... She saved me!! I would and have recommended her A+++

This doctor was clueless and unhelpful. She had no clue about anything. I found it very unprofessional for a doctor to not have a chart or a clue as to why a patient was being seen by them. To spend $50 to sit for an hour and be told nothing is a disgrace. This doctor also continue to give my mother attitude for asking a question after the fact. Dr Strauss is affiliated with Bon Secour yet she had no information in regards to my case through the Bon Secour. Diagnose me.com would be more useful

I accompanied a co-worker to his first visit with Dr. Strauss after his Primary Doctor found abnormalities in his lab results. For the past 6 months my co-worker has been declining cognitively and for the past week, literally non functional. For starters, Dr. Strauss was unfriendly and became almost insulting as the consult continued. She clearly stated she was not going to admit him to a hospital nor was she going to order any tests. She recommended he see a Neurologist (which would have be

I received a referral to her. I called the office 3 times on different days and left voicemails. She never called back. However when my husband became so ill and was hospitalized with endocarditis she was at the hospital daily. When I told her my experience she said - oh that's my secretary Kim- she's lazy!!! So- make your own wise decision!!!!
