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.

Dr. Wheelahan has been our children’s physician for many years, she now provides medical care for our grandchildren. Dr. Wheelahan has excellent bedside manners, and genuinely cares for these little people. We love Dr. Wheelahan! As quiet as it is kept, she is an awesome Ballerina/dancer.

Dr. Wheelahan was my pediatrician from when I was 8 all the way to 18! Years later, she is my daughter's pediatrician and we couldn't be happier! We live an hour away and will make the drive each time she needs to be seen. The staff is always friendly and helpful.
