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.

Poor care and lack of professionalism
She is unable to listen and constantly interrupts when trying to ask questions. Bases her assumptions on very little uninformed information. Isn't willing to be wrong and set aside her ego when she isn't correct. Refused to take into account that a patient who just had two seizures (became unconscious multiple times and had memory loss) in 6 hours may have been unable to accurately relay critical information, and decided against listening to someone who was a witness to both incidents, being close enough to catch the patient before they fell during both seizures and has access to their past medical history and medications for over 30 years, including those the day of the incident. Extremely rude and unprofessional when asked about possibilities opposing her assumptions. Patient was admitted and and another doctor later said her assumption wasn't very good based on information presented and poor clinical diagnosis.

Took my grandfather to the ER. She was the treating Dr. Completely disgusted in her approach to him. Bed side manner was non existent. Treatment of patient and family were...we were less than human. Terrible doctor on top of that.
