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 Assefa was highly competent and caring. My whole family appreciated her care.

As a new resident to Mt Pleasant Pa, I'm so grateful to have finally found a good doctor! I find Dr Astor Asseffa to be very thorough in her exams with me. I like that fact that she's been a practicing doctor for a while. Dr Asseffa is a kind and patient doctor who hones in on what your saying to understand the true nature of what you are inquiring about.
