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.

I got fired from my job on a 6/30 after having only a phone visit not even an in person visit (she refuses in person) on 6/28. This "doctor" had not even put her referral in for me until 7/3. I haven't been able to walk since 6/20 and now through multiple xrays seeing the growth on my bone has gotten bigger and I'm still waiting for an MRI. Also broke another bone today. Not that she would care. I couldn't walk and she still wouldn't see me and waited too long to put the referral in. Now I'm being evicted from my home I was buying and still can't walk. It is now 8/12.

Dr. Linda is disprespectful and incompetent. I had some paperwork that I needed to be signed ASAP lne Friday and told she can’t complete it that day and she was going to drop her son off at the airport which I totally understand and left the paperworks and was told to come back the following Monday. So I came back and paperwork isn’t still done. They told me it should be done that day or tomorrow and they were gonna call me back but they never did. And i came back today which is a Thursday and it is still not done. She said it was too much information to fill up. So i took the paperworks back and she hasn’t even started it yet. She do not do her job and she gave me a bad attitude. So if you are using Tricare do not come here.

Dr. Linda Rouel is absolutely one of the best providers I have ever dealt with. She is extremely caring about her patients. She spends so much time explaining the diagnoses and ways to prevent them. She is accessible to schedule appointments quickly in case of urgent matters. Highly recommended!

She is absolutely one of the most amazing primary care physicians out there. she cares a lot about her patients and spend tremendous amount of time, if needed, to explain any diagnosed health problems. She followed my health condition frequently by scheduling me up for follow-up appointments. Highly recommended.

Walked in Dr. Rouel's office and she got to me without much of a wait. She was very thorough and has even answered questions when I call on the phone. Dr. Rouel shows a deep concern and that matters a lot to me.

This is such an amazing Doctor, I saw a doctor a week before and they had no response to what I needed, she knew what was wrong with me right away and cleared up my infection.
