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.

I got right in at scheduled appointment. Everyone was very professional.

Will be changing providers
Very awkward appointment. She kept playing with her hair and had trouble making eye contact. She barely asked any questions and leaned on her nurse for quite a bit. She prescribed oral pills for acne without even discussing anything else. When I went to research the pill, it said you should have blood tests before taking them! She was very stand offish and cold mannered which is pretty off putting when you are vulnerable and sitting practically nude under a paper sheet.
