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.

Confused by this Doctor
What stood out is that she was dismissive of my questions and seemed to be making fun of how terrified I was at the diagnosis and idea of surgery. There was no follow-up or anyone to ask questions, and I was left with a surgery date and a feeling of absolute terror. Thankfully, I was referred elsewhere by a friend and am grateful to have found a place and surgeon that treated me as an entire person with feelings and fears. They were the best, and I have had a very good outcome.
