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.

Always calls (even if in the evening) to discuss any issues of concern…is very caring, patient and understanding, but steadfast in her advice when the need arises. Never is rushed and is an excellent listener.

Professional and Experienced
I have been a patient of Dr. Fields for a year and a half. It is not easy to find doctors here, much less knowledgeable and experienced doctors. She helped identify and treat a serious condition. Beyond her skill and professionalism, I find that she is very realistic but delivers the information with care. I like her no-nonsense approach. There was a time when I was sick and she called me after seeing patients that day. Had she not done that, I would have waited for a prescription or had to go to a walk-in clinic. This illness followed my recovery from COVID. I don't think it would have helped anyone if I had to be seen at a walk-in.
