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.

Awesome
I've been going to this office since childhood, first with Dr. Jackson and then Dr. Bergsma for the past couple of decades. He's an awesome Doc, very thorough and knowledgeable. He's also very thoughtful.I love the whole office, every single staff member, they have always been extremely nice.

Wonderful Physician
Great staff and a wonderful Physician. I had real concerns and a lot of questions when I went to see Dr Bergsma. Dr Bergsma sat with me and spent the time to answer all my questions and explain the purpose of each test he performed. I cannot recommend his practice highly enough.
