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.

Waste of money and time
I have never had another appointment where I knew less after than when I went in. She didn't really discuss my issue. She just said something about possible surgical procedures and left the room. I wasnt even sure if the visit was over. I had my regular doctor look over the visit notes and they were as lost and confused as me. I will be going elsewhere.

I will NEVER return to Dr. Opida. She did not take ANY time to talk to me about questions i might be having. She told me i have signs if endometriosis but never explained what it was! Then she said my ovaries could have become bigger. Then said bye and left the room. I'm 23 and i want kids. I've heard horror storied about endometriosis. She did nit care about me or anything i said. Ive been going to her for years and now that i'm older i've realized how horrible she truley is. NEVER AGAIN.
