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.

She was an advocate for my newborn when other hospitals and doctors did not care. She pushed for her to receive life saving care, and communicated well. Truly miss her and wish her the best wherever she is.

Dr. Msikinya was an amazing doctor to my husband as well as myself. We were very sadden by her departure from community network. She made us feel heard like someone really cared about our health and not just putting a band aid on the problem. We really hope and pray that all is well with this amazing women and if anyone could point us in the right direction to finding her, we will love to continue serves with her where ever she plants her feet.

Dr.Msikinya is the best doctor I’ve ever had, she take time to get to know you and your health and when she talks to you she makes sure you understand your full diagnosis. I referred Dr.Msikinya to many family and friends of mine and they all had the same impression of her she is such an amazing Doctor

I would use caution before going here.
When I first saw Doctor Msikinya everything seemed to be going okay. She was trying to figure out my illness but after seeing her for a few months she chalked everything up to me having anxiety. She would not order any MRI’s for me because she claimed that my insurance wouldn’t approve it. She didn’t even try. With my new doctor I’ve had at least 5 that were approved immediately. She would rush me through my appointments, when I would have virtual visits she would be half an hour late or later to them then would rush me through those even when she was the one late to them. I found a new doctor after seeing and running around in circles with Msikinya and was diagnosed with sle lupus and in the process of getting care when I was just told “it’s all in your head” it’s “anxiety” so if you want to be dismissed and rushed this is the place to go. After finally getting that diagnose her nor any community doctor will take my time and money again. Her nurse practitioners though. Very nice.

Would not recommend her Dr Msikinya. She is a nice person, but I don’t need a friend I need a doctor. She is always diagnosing me with these illnesses and I never get the results of any of my labs. I pay for these visits and miss work hours.I also had a pap here, she brought a student in without permission . Forcing me to do a breast exam even though her nurse said we didn’t have to do that exam today. Clearly no communication between the nurse and the doctor either!!! I have had enough and I will not be going back there.

Dr Msinkinya never makes you feel rushed. She always makes sure you feel all your concerns have been addressed. I drive over an hour to see her. She is worth the drive!

I'm a new patient and my first visit went very well and I have told people that she's a doctor who listen and doesn't brush you off. I know of three people who has her for a doctor and there two more who are in the process of changing to have her as their doctor as soon as they can.
