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.

just about the very best one could hope for. Great personality, with good looks to go with it. A real caring doctor and a joy to be with.

What a great office! I was able to get an appointment quickly and waited less than 5 minutes. Dr. Ash has a friendly, competent staff. My exam was thorough. She answered all my questions and froze off a bunch of brown spots that were bothering me. We visited as she quickly got rid of my old age barnacles!! I didn't feel uncomfortable at any point, because she was respectful of my privacy. Dr. Ash is so personable it was more like meeting a new friend!! Her office is clean and comfy, as well. It's just about time to return for another checkup, and I find myself looking forward to going back to this warm, yet professional office.

Dr. Ash is extremely competent and caring. Her education places her at the top of physicians available anywhere . She takes time with each patient to listen and explain. We are luck to have such a qualified physician on Merritt Island. .

She is a good doctor but her staff is horrible. Unfriendly and unhelpful. Don't even think about going to her if she is out of your network.
