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 wish I could put zero stars. She was extremely disrespectful and sent me away while I was in tears. She disregarded the extensive research I’ve done to try to explain the crippling chronic pain I’ve been experiencing and said maybe I “tore a muscle”. My little sister almost died because she sent her home claiming she was fine, only for her to go to the ER later that night and find out she had 100s of stones in her gulblatter and needed emergency surgery. She dismisses serious issues as non urgent and will refuse to put in the orders for proper testing. When I continued to try to explain myself and ask questions she seemed very inconvenienced and reminded me that she had another patient to see right after me, making me feel unimportant and rushed. I wanted to leave as soon as possible , this woman is not going to help anyone. Do everyone a favor and Take away her medical license.
