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. Korn has been my primary for 20+ yrs. Although I’ve felt a change in personal attention given of late, I attribute that to her busy schedule. She is an excellent physician; for many years now taking time to follow up with me regarding events that contribute , challenge or detract from my health. Add, She discovered a remotely located mole, had me see a specialist and in fact averted melanoma. She’s my primary doc for many years for a reason: outstanding, detail oriented and kind.

She is one of the most thorough, empathetic,doctors my family and I have ever had. She, responds promptly to secure messaging giving good recommendations on any concerns. Despite our having moved away, she called to assure me on the recommended course of action on treatment when I requested my medical records be forwarded to the new facility. Thank you Dr Korn for being an excellent doctor..

I myself work in health care. When I first started Dr. Korn she seemed OK. As time went on, however, she grew sloppy, inattentive, seemed not to care one whit about my health. She misdiagnosed two conditions, responded to another by just prescribing something for the symptoms, but made no effort to discover or address the underlying cause. She was brusque, always looking at her watch, trying to rush an appointment. THE LEAST CONCERNED, LEAST THOROUGH & LEAST EMPATHIC MD! STEER CLEAR!
