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.

Compassionate, caring, solution driven
Doctor Kliphuis was simply amazing over the three years of office visits. From Covid related issues, other health concerns to depression issues that resulted from the loss of my husband and my daughter. She is very efficient and does not waste time but in my experience when compassion was needed, Doctor Kliphuis went above and beyond.

No time for elderly patients. Repeated cancellations of my mothers appointments, poor follow up. Worst care my mother has ever received.

I like Dr. Kliphius as she's definitely intelligent. Some of these bad reviews are due to her communication skills, but would you rather have a doctor with an exceptional bedside manner or a doctor that knows her stuff? I'll take the latter.

I never felt like she really cared to listen. I went in for a pap and she told me I didn't need one because it hadn't been a year. Which it was only a few days shy of a year. So that was a wasted spot which I was still billed for. I also went in for neck pain which her answer was to try over the counter ibuprophen and now months later I've got an appointment with a different dr and worse pain. Whenever I would ask about anything she'd blow me off w/ u work in med field

During my appointment/procedures in the office, she would explain exactly what she was going to be doing, what it might feel like, what she was going to be doing (and when) and was very knowledgeable about what she was doing. When I needed to be referred to a specialist, she was very timely in doing so. Being a women herself, she knows a lot about what stages of life women are going though and is very comforting to talk with about it.
