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.

Doctor Gwizdala was my primary care and internal medicine physician while I lived in Traverse City. I want her to know she not only treated my physical complaints, she helped me to “make it through “ the loss of my mother. She always was there with empathy, kindness, joy, humor, and just plain human goodness!!! And medically, she diagnosed me so accurately I am thriving today. I wish she was my internal medicine provider to this day!!! Thank you Doctor Gwizdala!!!!!!

Dr. Gwizdala is always personable and professional. She explains things well and her advice is realistic. Office environment is doing well in following COVID-19 guidelines for questions, temp, distancing, and masking - appreciated this greatly! Even though busy, office staff were cordial and calm.

Wonderful - I moved from the TC area and had to find a new Doctor - she was more a friend than a DR - I hope she comes to visit me in my new home in Chesterfield MI - Marge Golab

She is very through. Explains things well, and has a sense of humor. The registrar at the hospital told me that she was very impressed that my doctor had informed me so well.

After caring for me for years when I developed a chronic illness I became too complicated and was terminated b/c I asked her if I needed to find a new physician. I was honestly confused after her complicated statement. The best part was the notification was sent via portal mail which they then deactivated.
