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.

Dr. Brown was very thorough with my exam & biopsy. She was very caring & compassionate. I am thankful for her.

Dr. Brown was supposed to do a routine hernia surgery on me. Instead, she cut me 8 inches. Then the mesh got infected and she refused to acknowledge it. After 2 surgeries, a wound vac, and countless packing of an open incision she finally admitted that it may be infected. This was after I was treated like a new patient, when I was at her office weekly. I eventually went to see another doctor, had to have 2 more surgeries, and healed. This ordeal lasted 18 months. Just because she couldn't admit she was wrong. Trudy Brown is full of herself and is reckless in her surgeries and care of her patients.
