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.

Saw this doc after having a cough for 2 months. She was able to figure out what was wrong after some specialized blood work. 1 ER and 3 other doctors told me I was fine.

It took some time getting an appointment, but after I was accepted I found the best communication within the office from the front office, the MA, and Dr. Schroeder. Very pacific in instructions, and in her examination. Just wished I could have located her when I first moved the Arizona, I will never change doctor's after coming across Dr. Schroeder.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Schroeder’s for several years. I think she is an excellent physician. She listens to what I say and formulates her course of action based on all available data. Her entire office is friendly and highly professional!

Dr. Schroeder treated me for advanced Valley Fever. I am very grateful for the outstanding care and compassion Dr. Schroeder every time we met. She was extremely diligent in follow up on my case for a full year. This included blood tests one year out to be sure the fever was defeated. Excellent care, answered all my questions and friendly staff. Jeff K

I was referred to Dr. Schroeder by my doctor bc I have been suffering from a virus for months. I left her assistant 4 messages over a week and called her a 5th time and finally got her on the phone. She tells me the doctor doesn't want to take on my case. She wouldn't give me any reason why. I have never encountered such a cold practice ever, and I have been to many doctors.

What a waste of time and a copay. Wasn't interested in doing anything additional to what was already done by my PCP. The exam room was barren, no exam table or equipment. The waiting room was scorching hot and only had a tiny fan to keep the patients comfortable. The staff was friendly and took a comprehensive history but the doctor did nothing with it. Basically just sent me on my way because "I don't know what to do with you." If she wasn't going to help I wouldn't have wasted my money/time.

I'm a nurse at a hospital and was referred to Dr. Schroeder's office by my PCP. When I tried to touch base with Dr. Schroeder's office, Kathy (front desk) kept stating that she had no documentation the referral was sent. In the three times I spoke with Kathy on the phone, she was rude, condescending, was short with me, and she constantly cut me off when I tried to speak. I cancelled my referral because if Kathy is reflection of Dr. Schroeder's office, I don't want to be a patient there.

Dr.Schroeder is my second ID doctor after being diagnosed with Valley Fever/Meningitis. She is the BEST doctor! Has educated me on my condition & has gone over my best options, has been very attentive to me when I am in the hospital. I drive 2 hours to see her! & Kathy in the front office is awesome, and always super helpful!

Apparently I'm not alone here, but she wouldn't see me even with a referring doctor and her status saying "accepting new patients." Worse, she didn't inform me. I had to call two weeks later to hear about it. I'm sitting here desperate for help and yet, she could care less. If you want help, you're better off going somewhere else. Honestly, try anywhere but here.

If I could give a "0" I would. While traveling, I saw a physician at an Immediate Care facility which is part of Honor Health. This doctor faxed an urgent request referral to Dr. Laura Schroeder for a presumed infectious disease. He said that I urgent care and felt that an Infectious Disease Specialist was needed. After several days of waiting for an appointment with Dr. Schroeder I called her office. I was told that she decided not to take my case. Unbelievable!

I will say my first meeting at the hospital was not the best first impression, but she was all business. I then found her to be top notch, very good at listening and communicating. She knows her stuff and will not blow smoke up your butt. She will not tell you your better than you are, but will give you a plan to get you better. I had a total knee infection serious staff infection, she had a plan, I followed it, and it is gone. She is a Dr. that deals with very sick people and I am thankful

Had 1 follow up apt and she and her office staff were all very nice & helpful as well! Was really surprised by some of the reviews, I had a GREAT experience!!

Showed up in flip flops and seemed under the influence. Totally unprofessional and can't imagine how she got a medical degree. When her dog barking ring tone went off during the exam...that took the cake. An embarrassment to the healthcare industry.

The pre-certification and billing practices are mis-leading and difficult to change once the office decides. After being told that my visit would be in-network, I was not pleased that I was billed out-of-network and that the office staff did not want to work with me. I tried calling, writing letters, and calling again, and was ignored. I was even hung up on on my last phone call to them. Now, my bill is in collections.

Her office was uncooperative with my referring Doctor, allegedly lost the information he sent over, and overall seemed detached an uncaring about patients as a whole. I would not recommend her to anyone suffering from an infectious disease that is wanting to see a doctor that has the patient's best interest in mind. I was unable to even schedule an appointment to see her due to lack of communication between her and my referring Doctor.
