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.

Disconnected
Dr. Washington seems disconnected from her patients. She does not ask questions and does not offer any suggestions aside from medication. She also doesn't seem very interested in her patients or this type of medicine for that matter. Do not go to her if you are looking to solve your problems long-term.

I saw this doc to rule out 2 possible diagnoses as indicated by my internist. She ignored one possibility noted in my records until I asked about it specifically. Her response was something like “yeah, it could be that”. Not confidence inspiring at all. Went for the lab tests she ordered and it’s like pulling teeth to get the results and next steps. This doc has no bedside manner whatsoever. Will likely seek another specialist and start over again.

I like her and her staff. Never had any problems. She is the most understanding of my medical team. I've been going to her for years at various offices.

Please learn from my mistake and do not waste your time with this doctor or her office staff. Especially if you are truly in need of medical care. Incompetent, unprofessional and extremely rude. I have never experienced such poor service from any kind of health care provider as I have for the last 3 months with this place. Makes me wonder how legit this office really is.

Im so disgusted. Go to make an appointment with dr. Washintons office was asked over the phone for my complete credit card information including security pin on the back of the card just to make an appt. I have insurance and My co pay is only $20. You need all of this info in case i dont show up? Crazy. Put me in a bad space already. May be a good doctor but practices are shady already. Have this office every heard of identity fraud? No other doctor that I contacted needed this.

When her staff scheduled me for a time she was not available and I could not make another appointment until three months later due to her little availability outside my working hours (9-5 Mon-Fri) she refused to refill my prescriptions. This is life threatening for a diabetic. She could have asked for bg averags or to send her blood work, as my insurance doesn't allow blood work to be done at her office. She cares more about money than patients. She was also misinformed about insulin pumps.

This doctor is not a deep thinker, and not at all creative in her assessments.....I would not waste my time with her.
