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.

She has cancelled two appointments for my father due to being "caught up at the hospital." The first was rescheduled for TWO WEEKS from original date. Shortly before leaving for the rescheduled appointment, he received a phone call that this appointment is also be cancelled because she is "caught up at the hospital." There are two other doctors in this practice but they will not schedule him with one of the others because he is already an established patient with Oakley. Ten minutes total while he was in the hospital doesn't make him an established patient! My dad has been on IV and/or oral antibiotics for almost six weeks without major improvement and this doctor can't even keep a scheduled appointment. Ridiculous!!

Wonderful Doctor. Very attentive and focused on getting me healed. She knew exactly what I needed and then made it happen. I wish all doctors were as dedicated as Dr. Oakley. I was bragging about her to a friend and he exclaimed that she had been his doctor 25 years ago. He raved how good she was with him.
