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.

My sister has early stages of dementia and Dr. Benamfew had to write an medical assessment for the assisted living facility that my sister was moving to. The first assessment she did she stated my sister needed to be in memory care which she does not. I talked to her on the phone and she said she would redo the assessment stating my sister could go to assisted living. She did redo the assessment stating that my sister could move into an assisted living but then turned around and stated my sister was in the advanced stage of dementia which is a lie. I took care of my mother for five years when she had Alzheimer's and she wasn't really ready to go to a nursery home then and my sister is no where near advanced as my mother was. Dr. Benamfew I believe has one of superior doctor attitudes that she is the only one right and my opinion and experience does not matter. Thanks a lot Dr. Benafew for blocking my sister from going to an assisted living facility.
