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.

Wonderful caring physician
From my first preop consultation until my surgery yesterday, this doctor is so patient and understanding. As nervous as I was, she took the time to explain step by step on every move her and her team did. I can not explain how grateful I am to have her as my surgeon. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Anyway, Dr. Kavanagh followed up with warmth, humor, understanding and patiently made my situation clear. Luckily, her manner and support undid the dread brought on by Onc Doc. I feel fortunate that Dr. K will handle my surgery…

Dr Kavanagh treated me for appendix cancer. She answered all of my questions and put me at ease before my surgery. Her and her team have taken great care to make sure my recovery has gone well.
