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 Best Dr. EVER!
Dr. Julie has been our family PCP since she went into practice. She has watched our children grow and become confident, and us grow older with aging issues. Julie has always been calm, kind and compassionate and treated us as if we are part of her family. What we appreciate most about her is that she treats medically conservatively and doesn’t over-treat, -test, or -prescribe. When one of our issues is outside her scope of knowledge or practice, she refers us to someone she is confident will treat us well. We searched for several years for just the right doctor for our family and finding Dr. Julie Raekes was a godsend. Even my husband likes her, and he doesn’t like doctors at all.
