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 cared for me and my now 18 year old son since before he was borm. She's compationate, caring, and cheerful each time I see her. I feel she listens to my issue and comes up with a reasonable effective solution.

She doesn’t deserve one star. She is rude, wouldn’t give me my records, Or give me pain medication, and only offered hospice. I’m 80 yrs old, not at the end of my life or dying, and surgery has been ruled out. I’m in extreme pain, and until the New opiate law came out she would be give me some I’m in from bone on bone in my spine. I’ve lost inches and weight in the last few years from the degenerative disease. I’ve had several treatments for this pain from other doctors and they said nothing else can help. Anyway, She finally ordered an MRI and told me there wasn’t any change from my last time, 10 yrs ago, wouldn’t give me my mri. I went to the mri place and got a copy of it and got a dr to look at it. He said it’s the worst he’s seen and surgery wouldn’t help. And he sent me to pain management and ordered pain meds. Dr. Ferrer doesn’t care about her patients, and can’t read An mriS, refuses to release your records to you. She isn’t a qualified doctor

The doctor was unprepared, unable to answer relatively simple questions in any depth, and unprepared to spend more than 5-10 minutes for the visit. The visits were essentially a brush-off and waste of time. Questions were answered in a simplistic, grade school manner. I learned more from WebMD. I have found another doctor.

Constantly unhelpful and condescending, I went to her with an intensely painful rib-wall infection and she brushed it off as not being life threatening enough to do anything major about and when I was extremely sick from the antibiotics to the point I had to go off of them, she told me there was nothing else she could do for me. Two years later and the rib wall infection still is painful.

For 10 years Dr Ferrer has treated me for fibromyalgia. Now after all this time, I asked her to fill out a form regarding my having fibromyalgia. She told me that she couldn't do it and my medical records will be of no use either because she never put in my records anything about fibromyalgia. She said she was protecting my records! She had me on a med for it and had written that it was for migraines. Which was not true. After that she was very rude and tried to change my diagnosis. Reallypissed
