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.

Dr. Defrance does a great job engaging you as the parent in a collaborative relationship. There is so much to cover in well-visits and she really makes sure that if there are areas she is concerned about she will talk to you more in depth. She explains her concerns and child development. She really wants to know what you as the parent think about issues. There were many decisions where she would talk me through the different paths forward, the different possibilities, the risks and benefits, and ask what my parent experience and knowledge thought was best. She's a great pediatrician partner!
