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.

As a healthcare provider myself who has worked in a hospital for 10 years, I would not recommend this doctor. A family member and I had a very poor experience with her. She was rude, unprofessional, and offended by our questions as if we were challenging her clinical expertise. Quite honestly, now that she refused to provide any evidenced based information or rational of her recommendations, we are.

Obviously is too busy to actually listen She asked me the same question three times during the ten minute appointment then tried to order a test that I had just told her(three times) I had already had done Wrote out a prescription for meds and told me she is writing it for me to take two tablets a day but she really only wants me to take one. Is that even legal? My insurance won't cover the prescription as written. I've been waiting three days now for her to call me or the pharmacist
