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 was very caring, thorough, compassionate and personable. She answered all my questions with integrity and explained when I didn't quite understand. I never felt rushed. I was so sorry when she let me know she would no longer be practicing with Davita/Optum. One of the best doctors I had! Wished her only the best in the next chapter of her career!

I was a patient of Dr. Vizcarras, until she abruptly left the office, didn't bother to let me know, wasn't a big loss, last time I called her, she told me if I got sick before my appointment to just go to urgent care!

Dr. Vizcarra does not treat you as a patient, but merely as another number. She became my provider when my previous MD (whom I loved dearly) retired and let me just say I am anything but please. She is also my parents and brother provider and they have extremely similar views. Dr. Vizcarra does not listen to what you have to say, nor does she care what you have to say. In her mind she is the MD and she knows it all! I would NEVER recommend her to someone who is looking for a good and caring MD.

Dr. Vizcarra is a caring person who gave me time to explain my history. She listens and is empathetic. She seems well suited to treating chronic conditions in a primary care setting. I would highly recommend her.

All has her mind made up about what could be wrong before you can express your concerns. I felt she was dismissive and belittling. She did not address my concerns and did not take them seriously. She did not allow me to explain health history to give her some background. I do not feel confident or respected in her care and would not recommend to anyone.
