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.

I appreciate Dr. Rodriguez's kind approach to my health issues.

Dr. Rodriguez has been my nephrologist for almost 20 years. I have seen many and she is by far the best - consultative, caring, smart, listens and build rapport with patients.

I've been a kidney patient with Dr. Rodriguez for about 6-7 months. Over the years, I've had several nephrologists for my kidney problem. Dr. Rodriguez is clearly at the very top of my list. She's very knowledgeable and cordial. She always has the patient's best interests in mind, and she takes the time to make certain that the patient understands her decisions, and the current condition of the patient's disease. She is also very compassionate......she understands that patients are worried and fearful. Her calm manner helps to reduce patients' tensions. sometimes a difficult challenge, especially when she has to give bad news. She's absolutely top notch. I recommend her with great enthusiasm.
