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.

Very strange office with little "Medical" equipment on site except for a bed, vital machine and exam gloves in a big open room. Waited forever to get an appointment and then after exam she said she could do injections but a new MRI is needed and nothing was done to help alleviate pain. She did ALERT me that I was having muscle spasm but could not do anything to assist. I felt like the commercial for a dentist who tells you about the cavity you have but then they go to lunch.

Very bright and knowledgeable but overly cautious. I've gone twice and nothing has been done. I don't think she wanted to do my injections for some reason.
