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.

Bad Experience
Went for check up after over 4 years with no gynocologist. Once Dr. was in the room, was never asked if I was comfortable or made to feel so. With her hands, she was abrupt and rough. Never talked through exactly what she was going to do or eased my fears. Felt as if she wanted to be fast with no real concern for me. Her ineptitude hurt and shocked me as I've had positive experiences of this kind of exam before. Her attempt at the exam left me feeling physical pain. Doctors are usually much more sensitive and gentle. Not this one. No medical chaperone present to provide witnees, comfort and assistance during the intimate exam. If you have any physical sensitivity or history of trama, I highly suggest you choose someone else.

Dr. Nicholas was super nice and made me feel comfortable during this appointment. I haven't seen a doctor in several year so my nerves were all over the place but she was warm and very nice plus seemed down to earth. I really liked her
