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.

Dr Herndon is fantastic. She sees me as a person and not just a patient. She is concerned about my overall well being. She is not an alarmist but very thoroughly! I highly recommend her for women’s healthcare.

Shows concern for my health.
Dr. Herndon is thorough and takes the time needed to answer questions. She also gives referrals for concerns that fall outside the scope of gynecology. I appreciate her care.
