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 likely!!! 100%
There are no words to express the amazing, great doctor that Dr. McNeil is! She is one of a kind. Nowadays there are very little doctors that take the time to explain thoroughly the details of your condition & what it entails. She is very down to earth, kind, caring compassionate & very personable as if she was your own family member. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. McNeil through a friend that needed my translation through his experience & am so happy that I did! So professional! Definitely will recommend everyone that needs her for all there needs including myself!!

Terrible, terrible communication. Told pt. not to call when she was on call. Bled 50% of blood volume after discharged., needed to be admitted to hospital with low bp, and fast heart rate and HgB of 7. Didn’t follow closely or re-examine pt. She had the pt transferred to a Covid floor when this pt. Was Covid negative. Find someone else!

Words cannot express how grateful I am for having Dr. McNeil as my surgeon. Being diagnosed with stage 3 rectal Cancer at a relatively young age (under 50 years old) was very frightening to me and my family. Dr.McNeil explained to me and my family what my surgery would entail. She put my family at ease and answered every question.She is kind, compassionate and is top notch at what she does. I am forever grateful, she saved my life. I wish there were more people like her in the world!

I am forever grateful for Dr McNeal. She intervened when we had been told nothing more could be done for my dad. She told is she thought she could help offer a cure instead of just a maintenance with chemo for stage 4 colon cancer. Compassionate, professional and so down to earth. She just did surgery on my daddy and he's doing great!! Thank you Dr. I would refer everyone to you!!

To begin with Dr McNeil's office experience was very comforting. Dr McNeil herself has a very comfortable and soothing bedside manner. She never leaves you before answering all questions and making everyone very comfortable in what might be a scary situation. She's comforting in keeping everyone aware of any possibilities that could occur. So happy and grateful with her expertise. Thank you Dr McNeil...

I saw Dr. McNeil on 4/17/17 and was scheduled for surgery on the following Monday 4/24/17. All of my family attended the initial appoint. and surgery date. Dr. McNeil was so profession, direct and to the point of was needed to be done to remove the cancer in my lower intestine along with the removal of a portion of my colon. All the nurses and other assisting doctors had nothing but great things to say about Dr. McNeil If I know anyone needing her services I would make sure they see Dr McNeil.

Dr. McNeil made sure we completely understood what the risks were for my mother's procedure. She was very gentle with her and talked her through each step during the check-up. This was important to me as my mother has Alzheimer's. She took the time to make sure my mother understood as much as possible and included her in the discussion
