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.

Not timely and it’s next to impossible to be seen by her unless you can wait a few months to get in. Also she is very late to each appt. so plan on waiting half your day here.

I have been a patient of Dr Russell for the last 4 years for multinodulat guitar. I? have had few endocrinologist and she has been one of the best ones. Today I? was looking for her first name and I? saw she does not have stars as many as should. Isn’t sad that we only write reviews when we are MAD? That is why I? do not believe in this system. When we are happy with a service, we take it as granted. So we do not waste our time to write a review. But when we are mad, we go to any extend.

My girlfriend was a new patient, who has hypothyroidism, told dr Russell of her concerns of losing hair, depression, and weakness, this went untreated for months. She neglected to review her results and after countless phone calls to get her on the phone she told my girlfriend that , I'm a conservative despite many red flags. Basically she went untreated now, she was tested by another dr and told these are obvious causes for concern and medication adjustments. This dr is not a keeper stay away
