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.

The VERY best pediatrician my family has been treated by.

We absolutely love Dr. Josie and she alone is the only reason I continue to send my girls to Century Airport Peds. She is thorough and takes the time to perform a complete assessment (developmental and physical) coupled with health teaching appropriate for my teen and pre-teen daughters. The office manager should really consider revamping their scheduling practices. The method of scheduling well appointments is horrible and in NO WAY patient/parent focused.

Very disappointed with Dr. Josie Welliver. Instead of reviewing my child's records to discuss our concerns regarding depression, she began a 20 minute monologue discounting them. She did this after explaining that the fax summarizing two years of treatment from a mental health professional did not process so she was unable to review the data. How can she disregard concerns without having all of the information? We will not be seeing her again.
