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.

I would recommend Dr. Carpenter & I have! She is very knowledgeable, intelligent, professional and warm-hearted! She is exactly what Dignity strives to stand for. What a loss now that she has retired! I hope she is on a path that will give her everything she hopes for. I will miss her.

Dr. Carpenter is a fantastic doctor. She is very friendly and a great listener. She spent a lot of time with me and understood my concerns. I ended up having surgery and my results and recovery were much better than I expected. I would not hesitate to have her care for myself or any member of my family. Our community is lucky to have her and I am very appreciative of the outstanding medical care that I received.

My daughter is 23 with Downs Syndrome and Dr. Carpenter was very good with her. She also gave us good advice on how to handle our situation.
