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.

Very Caring.
She took her time to go over my history. I had Dr. Angel but he retired. So was looking for new doctor. Pleased with her and have found my new doctor. Highly recommend.

Dr. Fish is amazing! She is so kind and gentle. I've never felt rushed or like my concerns are silly. I always feel like a priority when I have an appointment. I trust what she is telling me and know that she has my best interest in mind. She has helped me to get a handle on my chronic illness. I know, without a doubt, that she truly and whole-heartedly cares for her patients. I would highly recommend her to everyone.

She seems more caring than most doctors and was willing to look into things when others wouldn't take the time. Harder to get an appointment though because she does not work full-time.

I saw Dr Fish today to establish her as my primary care provider. She really listened to my concerns and was very supportive. I didn't feel rushed in any way. I selected her at random from the insurance list of providers, looking for a D.O. was my primary focus. I think I was pretty lucky with my selection.
