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.

great doctor
Dr. B is kind and patient. She cares about her patients and allows the families time to ask questions. She is knowledgeable as well. I highly recommend her.

Extremely poor customer service.
The front desk treats you like a number rather than a person. With so many good doctors out there would give this place a miss.

so unprofessional, careless and ruins all the self confidence you may have. I had to call at least twenty times to get my medicine. Ifyou want someone careless, go right ahead, but seriously I would not recommend her whatsoever.

Extremely thorough and resourceful person. I believe if every specialist will give their time and attention to first of all explain their findings and next line of action the way she does we will be better off. What a gift for my family to spend time understanding the treatment and options available to our daughter. She is lovely and we respect her and grateful to have her.
