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. McGinness has been my son's pediatrician for 7+ years now. She has an excellent bedside manner and the care she has shown my son has been excellent. Appointments are usually available and if the length of the wait is long, well, so be it. That's the price to pay for medical care. She services a low income, high pediatric volume area and for the life of me, I don't understand why people do not think more highly of her. I'm grateful for the care she's shown my son. I'm grateful for a physician who's willing to work in an underprivileged, economically depressed area. We need more people like her and because we don't, her patient load is heavy.

I have been using this for my soon to be 21 year old son since he was a toddler and for my daughter. I have a lot of respect for Dr. McGinnis and she has always treated my children in a very friendly manner! They both like to see her! I have PPO insurance and can go to any doctor or specialist on my own and I continue to use Dr. McGinnis as her diagnoses are accurate. I am able that get appointments. Wait times can be long but she is super busy and you don't have to WAIT a week to be seen!

The receptionist is always rude when I call to make an appointment. Then they don't have any appointments until 8 weeks in the future. I'm done with your office Dr. McGinnis, I've already switched my children to another Dr.

I had a horrible experience with this physician and Staff! My daughter had lab tests taken and I got results back a week later. The results showed my daughter had high cholesterol and was Pre Diabetic. The doctor never called me to tell me results her office staff did. I was told she had high cholesterol and for her to cut back on fried foods and red meat. The one very important thing they failed to tell me is that she was PRE DIabetic!! That's a Big Miss if you ask me!!!!
