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.

He was very agitated with my baby and me and wrote something nasty in the medical file about me as a post partum mom. He is not educated about the vaccines at all and has no idea why a parent would want to delay vaccines. He just blindly follows the schedule because that is what he is advised to do. He talks to you like you are a rebel that needs disciplining just because you want to be fully educated about medical decisions for your child. Threatening to discharge you. Was very cold and rough.
