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.

Good people. I like your job.

There is no way to schedule an urgent appointment with her. She doesn't care. I was send to ER for a shoulder pain because she refused to see me. I was in a lot of pain so I had to go. But the ER Doctor was like really? That was something that she should have been able to do, it took less than 20 min to be prescribed some pain medications.

She is rude, and a horrible doctor. I don't recomendable her or her clínic. Look somewhere elss where you can find a better doctor with better care quality. From 0 to 10, I'll give her -infinite..... They didn't give me a referral, because she was trying to get more money from Medicaid... I had to leave my specialist office because she didn't sign the referral, after 3 months of waiting for this appointment. This is just shameful in every word possible...
