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.

Wonderful
We have been seeing Dr Christian for four years now and am shocked to see anyone have a bad experience. We will change days or times just to be sure we see her. She has been incredibly friendly, kind, and professional with both my daughter, my husband and myself.

Dr Christian is better suited to be working in a lab rather than with children. In the three instances where my kid had to see her the Dr took no initiative to engage with my kid. There's no smiling, no talking to the actual patient, kids are scared enough as it is when they come to the drs and this one makes no attempt to make a kid feel comfortable or safe. She doesn't even seem like she likes kids, maybe she prefer handling teenagers? She's pretty cold and rude. I'd like to think that I caught her on a bad day but she's been like this for the 3 visits my kids saw her for.

This pediatrician is not personal and instead of knowing your kid they categorize each scenario as a protocol. My son has a disorder that I've reminded them over and over and no matter what they make it an impossible task to get him the Meds he needs. If you want a pediatrician that truly cares about your kid, go somewhere else. Update: - result of speaking to one nurse who was clearly having a bad day and didn't want to help my son nor have any empathy- They kicked me out. Like I really ever

One of the worst doctors I have come across. One is expected to be kind and empathetic when he/she is a pediatrician and she is exact opposite of that. She stares at you in a weird way when you are talking to her. Not only does she come across as an inexperienced doctor but also as a disrespectful human being.
