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.

Wonderful office with sweet people!

Dr.R. Aflac and her team are wonderful. She has been great with my 10 year old from birth. My son was diagnosed with epilepsy (seizure disorder) when he was two years old. She and her nurse Mrs. Darrah are very attentive when we are in the office or if I call them needing help or info. I am so thankful for this awesome medical team.??

She doesn’t like giving referrals or doing what’s necessary to find real answers for your child. My child went to her for a bad rash and she said it was nothing just hives. It got worse as the night went on and we went to the ER. He got an EPI shot and they said he needed to have an extensive food allergy testing because food caused it. When I followed up with her she refused to refer us to an allergist or prescribe us an EPI pen because she said that he didn’t have any food allergies.

Horrible Pediatrician! She is barely there as it is, and when she is there she blows you off. My daughter had a horrible wheezing cough for 2 months and she refused 2 different times to order a chest x-ray or meds. I finally went to the ER and they did a chest x-ray, only to find out my daughter had severe asthma. I was livid.

Dr. Aflak most defi gives you referrals to specialist as my daughter has received 2. She even offered for my son to get a GI test just to give me peace of mind. She has alway seen my kids and the one tim the NP saw my daughter Dr. Aflak still came in to give her medical opinion again for peace of mind. She is great with my kids and I would recommend her to anyone.
