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. Lunsford has been with us through the whole T1D journey. My child’s A1C is 7.5, we have finally reached our goal thanks to Dr. Lunsford’s management.

Excellent
Dr. Lunsford has been seeing my son for hypothyroidism since birth. She and her staff have given him and us the most excellent care we could have ever asked for. During a scary time in the NICU, she gave us peace and understanding about our son. We love her!!!!
