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.

Avoid at all costs
Try to find another endo in the area, do not get stuck with her. Hostile and indifferent to patients. Will constantly try to pawn your care off to other providers even when they're not qualified for endocrinology-related issues. She acts like she hates her job and resents having to treat you. Failed me completely with the issues I was having and came to her for.

Condescending and rude
Took my 84 year old mother to her for thyroid cancer appointment. She was so condescending and insensitive to my mother’s situation. She was more concerned with the time she was spending with us than our questions. She referred to one of my mother’s questions as a “sidetrack” as it interfered with her talking. Really bad bedside manner.
