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.

Terrible office she manipulates the system to charge your insurance and you way more. I was seen for a yearly physical which is fully covered by my insurance but ended up getting a 250 dollar bill because she billed everything under preventative not routine. They add things onto your visit and bill insurance with things they never even tested you for. Not to mention the office is an absolute disaster and filthy. Tape on the doors. Oven mitts for the things you put your feet on for exams it’s terrible and unsanitary.

We have been her patients since moving to Massachusetts in 2008. She has always been available when we need her. Sent my daughter for emergency Cat Scan where an abdominal cyst was discovered and arranged for consult and surgery within the week in Boston. Waiting in a doctors office is normal. I ve waited 15 minutes , 45 minutes,even an hour. But she gives me the time I need when in examination room. Insurance companies dictate the 15 minute scheduling. Glad to have chosen her as our doctor.

Uses a reputability unprofessional lawyer to collect her penny debts. My $110 dollar bill is now a $300 dollar bill after interest and fees because they decide to send it to me FIVE YEARS later. Not to mention the lady's always been rude and not the brightest bulb on the tree
