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.

Love Dr Mendes! She goes above and beyond and doctor we ever seen.

She "diagnosed" my son with psychosocial dwarfism. And recommended he go into foster care. I took him for a 2nd opinion and low and behold, NOTHING is wrong with him. His growth is on track to be approx 5'3 which is my height and 2 inches shorter than his father. His body and weight is in proportion to his height. I do not trust this woman as far as I could throw her.

The best doctor that I have ever seen. Her knowledge and compassion is amazing! I drive over an hour and a half for my child to see her, and we would drive farther if we had to!
