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.

Don't recommend
First appointment was incredibly rushed and she barely explained what was happening. Only looked at 1 of 2 issues I presented. Wouldn't recommend.

Overcharged for service
Went to a new patient appointment and was only seen by Dr. Berry for around 5 minutes. It felt very rushed. They ended up billing that appointment for almost $500, adding services to their notes that were not performed to justify the coding. I'll be finding a new specialist.

First time visiting Dr. Berry. Very professional, knowledgeable, and competent. I was very impressed with her skills, diagnosis, and clean stitches with no pain. Her explanations had enough details to put me at ease. Thank you Dr. Berry!

She spent more time with me than any of the other doctors st Sansum had previously. She was knowledgeable about my condition and that was reassuring.

A relief to find a great Doctor. She is the very best. She is the most knowledgeable off all the Doctors I have seen for my skin. One appointment! I will of course have more appointments but she is the best

I was a little skeptical of the care I would receive when I entered Sansum as it is pretty dated. It could definitely use an overhaul! However, my skepticism quickly went away after my visit with Dr. Berry. She was so kind and sweet with me. She is an excellent doctor and I am very satisfied with the attentiveness and quality of care I have received.

I saw Dr. Berry for redness that no one could figure out. She was the first to figure out that it was psoriasis. She put me on treatment that changed my life and my joint pain does not bother me anymore.

I saw Dr. Berry for a problem with my skin the doctors couldn't figure out. She figured out it was dermatitis herpetiformis. No other doctor had even considered this as a possibility. She started me on treatment and now I am clear. Highly recommend her.
