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.

Do Not Recommend
I found her to be abrupt and rude. She seemed disinterested in the rosacea issue and couldn't decide on a cream. Then she said a gel; then she just left the room and never returned. Other reviewers have said the same. Do yourself a favor, find a dermatologist that is interested. It was a bad experience.
