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.

Incompetent. DO NOT GO
DO NOT GO. A disaster. Doesn't listen, didn't address the infection problem/symptoms that prompted the visit, which lead to endangering a close relative's life. "Dr." Belgarde also left wildly inaccurate after-visit notes, and was generally rude and distracted. Unbelievable this person is a doctor.

Dr. Belgarde is a wonderful Dr. She took the time to listen to me and told some lifestyle changes I should take before just trying to put me on medication. She was very personable and I am so sad to learn that she has left Cedars. I am upset with Cedars that I didn't receive a call, letter (which they usually send) about this and now I have to find a new doctor. If I never called and asked I would have never been informed.

I almost do not want to write a review because I feel I have such a special, unique doctor in Dr. Belgarde. She is extremely knowledgeable, understandable and articulate. I could just sit and listen to her speak. She does not sugarcoat, but she also does not create a panic. She reads your file beforehand and take her time to listen carefully and explain thoroughly. I just hope she stays with Cedars forever. Wondeful doctor in every way.

Dr. Belgarde makes you feel at ease as soon as she steps into the exam room. She explains everything to you in plain English and I always leave her office feeling informed. She is kind, smart, and her concern is genuine.
