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.

Good doctor
Doctor was great. But had to call the front desk person because I was charged for something I didn’t get and also tried to clarify some misinformation between them and insurance company. She clearly was annoyed with my questions and extremely rude. That alone is why I won’t be back it recommend that office.
